Meet the tSS team during ASCRS week

Meet Us at Booth 2142 in Washington, D.C.

In-person, 15-minute strategy session during ASCRS week — April 10-13, 2026.

See Your Growth Leak

We'll map premium conversion leakage, referral drag, and scheduling friction specific to your practice model.

Leave With a Plan

Walk away with a practical next step for your practice — not a generic sales pitch.

The Main growth challenge

Growth Breaks When Surgical Demand
Outruns Operations

ASCRS attendees do not need another disconnected point solution. They need cleaner execution from first inquiry through consult, surgery, follow-up, and referral coordination.

Premium Conversion Leakage

Missed callbacks, unscheduled consults, and low conversion from your highest-value phone and web traffic — lost before they ever become patients.

Referral + Co-Management Leakage

Faxes, phone calls, and HIPAA texts that never become scheduled appointments. Your referral partners are sending patients — they just disappear in the handoff.

Surgery Scheduling Drag

The OR schedule, pre-op flow, confirmations, and post-op coordination all create drag when the process depends on manual follow-through.

Physician Time Loss

Your team is copying, pasting, and chasing — instead of delivering a premium patient experience. Admin turnover now exceeds 25% annually in practices like yours.

No-Show + Follow-Up Gaps

No real-time view of your pipeline, capacity, or collections. Decisions made on gut instead of data. Revenue leaks you can't see — until it's too late.

Disconnected Growth Stack

Most practices already have tools — scheduling, CRM, marketing, analytics. But nobody is flying the plane. Practices use less than 30% of the features they're paying for.

The Insight

Technology Alone Was
Never the Solution

Software promised efficiency. Instead it created complexity. Practices were sold scheduling platforms, marketing tools, patient engagement apps, reputation management systems, referral trackers, CRM systems, and analytics dashboards — often separately, often by vendors with no integration between them.

The result is what we call the Empty Cockpit Problem: the plane exists, the instruments work — and nobody is flying it.

What a practice actually needs is not more software. It needs an embedded operator — a trained, dedicated presence supported by integrated technology, managed on their behalf.

See The Solution
Practice Operations Dashboard
Before tSS
  • 8–12 disconnected systems
  • Overwhelmed admin staff
  • EHR + CRM + marketing don't talk
  • No real-time revenue visibility
  • Who's flying the plane?
With tSS
  • One integrated operating system
  • Dedicated Patient Engagement Officer
  • All systems connected via EHR
  • Live dashboards — pipeline & revenue
  • We fly the plane. You see patients.
The Model

How tSS Supports the Surgeon-Led Practice

Three integrated layers. One outcome: a better-run practice that you still own, that runs like a system 10× your size.

01

We Integrate
Your Systems

No replacement required. Your EHR stays. Your PM system stays. We wrap our platform around everything you already use — connecting your data, communications, and workflows.

  • EHR & PM integration
  • VoIP / phone integration
  • Zero disruption to existing workflows
02

We Embed
Your Operator

A dedicated, HIPAA-certified Patient Engagement Officer (PEO) is trained on your practice's workflows and embedded into your operations. Multilingual. Managed by us. Accountable to you.

  • Multilingual patient engagement
  • Trained for your specialty
  • Managed & accountable to outcomes
The Core Differentiator
03

Automation Runs
the Workflows

AI and RPA handle the repetitive administrative layer — so your team focuses on patients, not paperwork. Every workflow is enforced: scheduled, pending with reason, or resolved.

  • Appointment reminders & recalls
  • Referral capture automation
  • No-show recovery workflows
The Result: Less admin burden  →  Better patient experience  →  Higher revenue capture  →  Practice independence preserved
The Platform

What ASCRS Attendees Usually Want to Fix First.

Rather than a wall of features, we organize our platform around the four outcomes that matter most to ophthalmology practices.

Patient Engagement

The human layer that keeps patients engaged, returning, and satisfied.

  • Multilingual Patient Engagement Officers
  • Appointment reminders & recalls
  • No-show reduction workflows
  • Patient reactivation campaigns
  • Online booking & waitlist matching

Practice Operations

Operational infrastructure that makes your practice run like a 10× larger system.

  • Surgery coordination & scheduling
  • Insurance authorization & verification
  • HIPAA-compliant digital forms & e-Sign
  • Staff task & ticket management
  • Referring provider application

Growth & Marketing

Growth infrastructure that brings patients in and keeps referrals flowing.

  • Enterprise CRM synced with EHR
  • Referral capture & tracking
  • Reputation management & reviews
  • Automated marketing campaigns
  • Custom website integration

AI & Automation

The intelligence layer that enforces outcomes and gives real-time visibility.

  • Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
  • Agentic AI workflows
  • AI front desk & call handling
  • Real-time performance dashboards
  • Capacity & collections reporting

All 50+ applications hosted on AWS GovCloud — government-grade security, full HIPAA compliance, integrated directly into your existing EHR and practice management system. Zero software cost.

The Proof

Practices That Stay the Course Don't Look Back

The clearest ROI typically shows up between months 6 and 18. Practices that commit to the full model don't come back asking if it was worth it — they come back asking what else we can do.

$100M+ Revenue Generated for Practices
99% Client Satisfaction Rate
50+ Integrated HIPAA Applications
$0 Technology Cost to the Practice

The 18-Month J-Curve

Operational transformation is disruptive before it is beneficial. The first six months involve integration and learning. ROI compounds after month twelve. This is exactly why short-term software solutions and generic VA services consistently fail — they leave before the transformation completes.

A two-year embedded engagement is not an arbitrary contract length. It is the minimum viable duration for the model to deliver what it promises.

Competitor categories referenced by type, not name, per our internal guidance. tSS respects all alternatives — we simply occupy a different space.

Best Fit

Built for Surgeons, Owners, and Multi-Physician Growth Teams

Cataract Surgery Groups
(1–3 Physicians)

Pain: You need stronger patient conversion, cleaner follow-through, and less physician time lost to operational drag.

tSS supports consult follow-through, premium patient communication, scheduling coordination, and the operating discipline needed to protect physician time.

Multi-Physician Groups
(scaling ophthalmology practices)

Pain: You need visibility across providers, sites, surgery flow, and referral capture in an operation that has already outgrown the current infrastructure.

tSS closes those leaks — referral capture, surgical coordination, real-time dashboards across all locations and providers.

Strongest ASCRS Fit

Premium Cataract + Refractive Practices
(high-value patient experience teams)

Pain: You need cleaner consult-to-surgery conversion, tighter patient communication, and stronger premium experience consistency.

tSS closes the conversion loop — from first contact through pre-op, surgery scheduling, and post-op follow-up automation.

Common Questions

What ASCRS Attendees Usually Ask First

No. We integrate with your existing EHR and practice management system — we don't replace it. Your clinical workflows stay exactly as they are. We add the operational and patient engagement layer on top.

No. The point is not generic labor. The PEO works as part of a managed operating model with integrated technology, defined workflows, and outcome ownership tied to your consult, surgery, and patient-communication flow.

Practices with premium cataract, refractive, anterior segment, or multi-physician growth goals are usually the strongest fit, especially when leadership can already feel consult-to-surgery leakage.

Bring the part of the growth engine that feels slow or inconsistent now: premium conversion, referral follow-through, surgery scheduling, patient communication, or reporting visibility. That is enough to make the meeting useful.

Most teams have already tried point tools. We combine the human execution layer and the integrated technology layer so the workflow actually gets carried from first inquiry through consult, surgery, and follow-up.

Either can book it. The best meeting usually includes the person feeling the growth pressure most directly, whether that is a surgeon-owner, CEO, administrator, or operations lead.
