Practice Assessments – (Focused or Comprehensive)

Our experienced practice management consultants can perform a focused or comprehensive practice assessment to identify opportunities to increase income and physician productivity by focusing on critical elements that impact reimbursements, costs and overall billing data quality.

Information and Data Systems
|
|
A thriving practice depends on control over communications, automation, data integrity and security. We review these key practice management systems to assess technology opportunities for more cost-effective ways. |

|
|
Policies and Procedures / Accountability Controls
|
|
The lack of documented policies and procedures linked to staff responsibility and accountability forces staff to ‘rule by exception,’ creating data quality and compliance headaches. To strengthen operations and compliance, we review, develop and refine financial and operational policies and procedures, and establish measures to monitor operational performance. |

|
Staff Development and HR Management
|
|
Personnel costs can represent the practice's single highest expense and the greatest factor for practice management success. We review current management and reporting operations, perform task analyses to gauge workflow, division of responsibility and then match tasks to staffing requirements. We can develop personnel policies, educational programs, task-oriented position descriptions, evaluations and establish salary and productivity ranges. |
