Quick Answer
Odoo ERP transforms healthcare SMEs by addressing three profit drains: (1) Billing errors—auto-coding reduces claim rejections from 30% to under 5%, (2) No-shows—automated reminders recover 30-40% of missed appointments worth $150-300 each, (3) Fragmented records—unified EMR saves doctors 30% of their time. Implementation takes 4 weeks, costs $50-150/month for small clinics, with ROI in 2-4 months.
