A Professional 2nd Opinion

Protect Your Time, Money, and Patients sThe Intera line of screening tools is based on the latest research and best practices. Using these tools can help to streamline your interview and evaluation process while offering invaluable protection for your time, money, and patients!
InteraSolutions is the smart choice for physicians wanting to obtain protection and improve effectiveness without stressing their budget. No other service provides such a wide range of benefits all in one place! Some of our benefits include:

1 Protection from and reduced numbers of problematic patients, legal threats and action, office disruptions, slanderous attacks on the internet, and unnecessary surgical revisions.
2Our tools help you improve rapport with patients the easy way, before you even meet with them the first time, because you are demonstrating to the patient that you are genuinely concerned about their well-being and readiness for treatment from both a physical and mental health perspective.
3Our brief, summative reports indicate the patient's psychological sutiability for surgery, likelihood for satisfaction with outcome, psychiatric indications and behavioral characteristics, postoperative noncompliance, and more! We give you the information you need to reduce turbulence in patient interactions and to ensure a safe and positive experience for you, your patients, and your staff.
4Peace of mind. In a malpractice suit, the absence of a psychological workup can constitute a failure to obtain adequate history. Our tools help to ensure a doctor's due diligence and provide a professional 'second opinion' from a respected psychologist.
5Our cost-effective tools utilize advanced internet technology, and implementing them is as easy as sending your patient to a URL and then reading a brief report. The way our tools work and the information you receive will streamline and improve the effectiveness of the patient interview process, while saving time and improving the overall quality of care.
Why YOU Need Intera! What Riverwoods Behavioral Health is All About Research suggests that only 15% of malpractice suits are due to actual poor results! This means that 85% of all legal action is due to other, more subjective, factors, such as unrealistic expectations and psychological or emotional disturbances. In order to reduce the overwhelming number of unnecessary problems that are plaguing doctors, it is necessary to get an understanding of your patients' mental and emotional stability prior to care. Until now, there has never been a fast, easy, and affordable method for identifying problematic or potentially dangerous patients. InteraSolution's online tools, such as the Cosmetic Readiness Assessment, provide fast, easy patient assessment and a brief summative report detailing psychiatric contraindicators for elective medical procedures such as cosmetic surgery, risk of misuse of prescription opioids, postbariatric non-compliant behaviors, and more.
The Right Tool for the JobIt's a 'Doctor Beware' Market

"A man's got to know his limitations"
~Dirty Harry

Okay, so you probably weren't expecting us to break out the Dirty Harry quote-book, but we couldn't resist. The fact is, it is very difficult to determine the psychiatric condition of a patient, even for trained mental health professionals. Many doctor's do not realize how complex these issues are, and believe it sufficient to get a "good feel" for the patient through their interview process, but this is neither accurate enough to rely on nor is it good medicine. Using the right instrument is important in all aspects of care: after all, you wouldn't use a blood pressure cuff to check for a bone fracture. Knowing the limitations of a tool and how to overcome them is an important part of excellent medical service. Besides, using the right tool saves you time and money so you can focus on your patients and your craft.
The Cosmetic Readiness Assessment (CRA) Protects against potential lawsuits! When used properly, the CRA decreases the likelihood of a malpractice suit and reduces the number of problematic patients you deal with.
  • The CRA is a fast, easy-to-use, comprehensive assessment that can realistically and affordably be utilized with every patient!
  • If a case should go to court, having obtained a psychological evaluation prior to treatment helps prove your due diligence!
  • The CRA investigates patient expectations and motivations for surgery, and psychological and behavioral issues that may interfere with or prevent satisfaction with positive surgical outcome.
  • By identifying problematic patients prior to the interview and treatment you will be better prepared to deal with their specific "brand of trouble." This may save you a lot of frustration as well as increasing likelihood of severe or dangerous patient reactions.
Saves time & increases productivity! sObtaining critical information about your patient prior to the initial interview allows you to make more effective use of the interview time in order to spend more of your time focussing on the critical items specific to each patient in order to help them more fully and realistically prepare for their procedure(s).sOur reports help you familiarize yourself with key issues before meeting with the patient so you are not "going in blind." Additionally, the majority of individuals respond more openly and honestly with online testing methods than in a face-to-face interview. This means that our tool provides you with more accurate information than a traditional interview. Turn Economic Hardship Around! sPeople often ask what the bottom line is for their practice. They worry that the extra step or cost will detur patients or decrease their competitiveness. Simply put, the CRA is a Practice Building Tool that improves your reputation both by maximizing positive and minimizing negative referrals by patients as well as by demonstrating your concern for all aspects of the patient's health.
