The drum of rain, the boom of thunder, and the splash of galoshes as the CFO searches for ways to ride out the COVID storm.  The pandemic has been — and continues to be — an unprecedented financial strain on the U.S. healthcare system. Though the passage of the [CARES Act in 2020](https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2785892) lessened the burden1, hospital CFOs now face rising inflation, a national labor shortage, and yet another wave of COVID infections.  [Christopher Schwartz, MD](https://www.purview.net/blog/author/christopher-schwartz-md) [Read More](https://www.purview.net/blog/remote-second-opinions-a-cure-for-the-c-suite-blues) ![hospital innovation department initatives](https://www.purview.net/hubfs/hospital%20executives%20deliberating.png) [Hospitals,](https://www.purview.net/blog/topic/hospitals) [Second Opinions](https://www.purview.net/blog/topic/second-opinions) ### [Why Not Every Hospital Should Consider a Virtual Second Opinion Program](https://www.purview.net/blog/why-not-every-hospital-should-consider-a-virtual-second-opinion-program) Apr 27, 2022, 11:09:12 AM Medical second opinions are fast becoming a standard patient request as a part of a critical diagnosis. [Medicare](https://www.medicare.gov/Pubs/pdf/02173-Getting-a-Second-Opinion-Before-Surgery.pdf) encourages patients to receive a second opinion before a life-changing treatment or invasive surgery. Malpractice insurance carriers encourage second opinions to lower their risk. The Cleveland Clinic reported that the market for second opinions is expected to more than double from 2019, reaching seven billion dollars by 2024. ![Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png?width=45&name=Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png) [Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/blog/author/les-trachtman) [Read More](https://www.purview.net/blog/why-not-every-hospital-should-consider-a-virtual-second-opinion-program) ![can i see patients outside of my state](https://www.purview.net/hubfs/10-2.png) [Specialists,](https://www.purview.net/blog/topic/specialists) [Hospitals,](https://www.purview.net/blog/topic/hospitals) [Second Opinions](https://www.purview.net/blog/topic/second-opinions) ### [Practicing Medicine Beyond Your Own State's Border](https://www.purview.net/blog/practicing-medicine-beyond-your-own-states-border) Apr 12, 2022, 8:30:00 AM In the US, regulation of the practice medicine is a state prerogative. Based upon one of the earliest precepts of the establishment of the federal government in the United States, states retain the power to regulate much of what occurs solely within their borders. Physicians are licensed in the state in which they practice and must adhere to that state's mandates. So, can a physician legally serve a patient in need of their specialty if they reside [outside of their jurisdiction](https://www.purview.net/navigating-licensure-in-online-second-opinions)? ![Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png?width=45&name=Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png) [Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/blog/author/les-trachtman) [Read More](https://www.purview.net/blog/practicing-medicine-beyond-your-own-states-border) ![Compliance Concept.

Dropbox is one of the most popular file sharing services and is on millions of desktop computers around the world. But just because you use it for many of your other tasks, does not mean you should use Dropbox for medical image storage. Here are 4 reasons to be careful when using Dropbox as your medical imaging solution... ![Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png?width=45&name=Les%20Trachtman%20Circle%20BW.png) [Les Trachtman, EE, JD, MBA](https://www.purview.net/blog/author/les-trachtman) [Read More](https://www.purview.net/blog/is-dropbox-hipaa-compliant-for-medical-imaging) ![](https://www.purview.net/hubfs/AdobeStock_297327517.jpeg) ### [How to Drive Patient Engagement with Remote Consults](https://www.purview.net/blog/how-to-drive-patient-engagement-with-remote-consults) Mar 23, 2022, 5:23:37 PM A mounting body of evidence shows that patient engagement can cut costs for healthcare organizations while also improving health outcomes. For example, an article from [The Commonwealth Fund](https://www.commonwealthfund.org/publications/journal-article/2013/feb/patients-lower-activation-associated-higher-costs-delivery?redirect_source=/publications/in-the-literature/2013/feb/patients-with-lower-activation) found that patients with lower activation scores end up costing more than patients with higher activation scores. Another [study from Tractica](https://mhealthintelligence.com/news/wearable-payment-devices-change-future-of-fitness-tracking) demonstrates a correlation between higher patient engagement and positive wellness behaviors.  ![Samantha Winters](https://app.hubspot.com/settings/avatar/8f52a7a18c8815b38334ed5baccc850a) [Samantha Winters](https://www.purview.net/blog/author/samantha-winters) [Read More](https://www.purview.net/blog/how-to-drive-patient-engagement-with-remote-consults) [16](https://www.purview.net/blog/page/16) [17](https://www.purview.net/blog/page/17) [18](https://www.purview.net/blog/page/18) [19](https://www.purview.net/blog/page/19) [20](https://www.purview.net/blog/page/20) ![image1](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/image1.png?width=300&height=40&name=image1.png) #### About Purview [About Us](https://www.purview.net/about) [News](https://www.purview.net/news) #### Solutions [Expert View™](https://www.purview.net/expertview) [Expert View™ Demo](https://www.purview.net/scale-with-second-opinions-demonstration) [Purview Image™](https://www.purview.net/image) [Purview Image™ Demo](https://www.purview.net/image#Five-Min-Demo) #### Resources [Blog](https://www.purview.net/blog) [Events](https://www.purview.net/webinars) [Customer Stories](https://www.purview.net/user-stories) #### Support [Contact Support](https://www.purview.net/contact-us) [Contact Us](https://www.purview.net/contact-us) [Sales](https://www.purview.net/contact-us) [![facebook-purview](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/facebook-purview.png?width=30&height=30&name=facebook-purview.png)](https://www.facebook.com/PurviewImages) [![linkedin-purview](https://www.purview.net/hs-fs/hubfs/linkedin-purview.png?width=26&height=25&name=linkedin-purview.png)](https://www.linkedin.com/company/purview) © 2026 PURVIEW All Rights Reserved [Privacy Policies](https://www.purview.net/privacypolicy) [Terms of Service](https://www.purview.net/hubfs/Purview%20Terms%20of%20Service.pdf) ![](https://px.ads.linkedin.com/collect/?pid=1516546&fmt=gif)   ### Title Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
