If you are wondering if you can grow by 10% or more, you certainly can. Almost any practice can do it, and why would you want to work the same hours without maximizing production, profit, and efficiency, which means lower levels of stress and fatigue? Don't waste any more time. Grow your production.
Delegate at the highest level. Levin Group consultants often find dozens of practice tasks that can be delegated to a team member but are not. To ensure the highest level of efficiency, have the lowest compensated employee carry out every job they are capable of handling. Then you move up the compensation ladder from team member to team member, maximizing their assigned tasks.
Don't forget to reactivate your inactive patients. Every time you have a patient go inactive, there's always a risk that they may never come back. Set strategies, such as automated appointment reminders, to maintain your patient base. This is how you increase production by 10% or more.
