ePractice Manager routinely analyzes practice schedules with a goal of streamlining patient flow and maximizing productivity. We provide potential schedule models, along with guidance on choosing your best approach to schedule enhancement and modification.

Whether numbers are going up or down, you should always try to isolate any changes that were made – good or bad – that might have contributed to this. Contact us and we’ll be happy to share simple steps that have worked in 1000’s of practices for you to use.

Variety in marketing outreach is essential. Practices should have a dozen different ways they make themselves known to targeted patients. ePM can help you define your ideal patient, refine your message, stand out among your colleagues, and assign the correct resources for oversight.

Get ahead of the onboarding process. This means standardizing all HR forms and processes so the first several weeks are planned and executed efficiently for all involved. Oversight and progress checks keep everyone informed and winning as you transfer knowledge and culture over to your new employee.

Populating a budget model, posting monthly stats, and evaluating progress keeps decision making in perspective and allows you to prioritize spending. ePM conducts a financial analysis that includes an evaluation of past spending and viability, an assessment of current overall circumstances, and the short/mid/long term goals of the practice owner.

You must clarify what you want team members to be accountable for – overall productivity of the practice, or particular goals for each department or individual. ePM has simple steps to set this up, from setting the goals, to ensuring oversight, and rewarding  and correcting performance.

Doctors frequently tell us that practice transitions, desired or otherwise, sneak up on them and affect terms and outcomes. Optimizing and maintaining practice performance in visible ways over the long term is the best strategy to demonstrate value and something we have helped many practices with over the years.

ePractice Manager has constructed an examination plan for doctors who want to change their own situation or augment clinical capacity. We evaluate the patient population, schedule consistency, financial condition of the practice, and logistics to map out a detailed strategy.
