Case Study: MidWest Eye Consultants achieves practice-wide consolidation and saves 114 staff hours per month with Compulink

Eyecare Advantage Enables Smooth Practice Management Conversions to 26 Location Practice

MidWest Eye Consultants grew from a two‑doctor practice to 38 doctors across 26 locations—including clinics, surgery centers, a LASIK center, a lens lab and an audiology clinic—and found each site running as a standalone system with its own patient database. That fragmented setup created duplicate work and made frequent conversions from acquired practices’ different management systems a recurring headache for IT Project Manager Jackie Imus.

Working with Compulink, the practice consolidated onto Eyecare Advantage, converting data quickly (often in as little as three hours) from multiple legacy systems while prioritizing demographics, recalls and scheduling for immediate revenue generation and using old systems in parallel for billing during the transition. The centralized, customizable solution eliminated redundancies, saved an estimated 114 staff hours per month and thousands of dollars in overhead (including $1,300 monthly in reporting costs), improved practice‑wide reporting and prepared the organization for Web registration and EHR rollout.
