Dr. Dianne M. Baynes decided on healthcare as a profession at the age of 10. She laid out a plan, and the steps to follow to achieve that end. She started volunteering in the local hospital at the age of 15 and eventually earned her nursing degree at the age of 19 and received her nursing license on her 20th birthday. She practiced as a registered nurse for 10 years prior to opening her own chiropractic practice. A 1986 graduate of Life University, Marietta Geor-gia, Dr. Baynes graduated Summa Cum Laude as Class Salutatorian. While attending Chiropractic College, she discov-ered her love of teaching. Dr. Baynes was selected in the top 1% of her class to join the elite Senior Intern Program. This program was designed as peer-to-peer teaching in the clinical environment. The strong desire to learn and teach helped drive the success of her chiropractic practice and continues to drive her success as a business and practice management coach today. Dr. Baynes has practiced in Tennessee and Florida and has been a practice management coach since 1998. It is with great joy that Dr. Baynes joins the KMC University team. Having worked with Kathy Mills Chang in the past, Dr. Baynes knows the benefits that the KMCU program brings to the chiropractic profession. “KMC University has a focus - to help doctors make and keep more money - and I know I have the skill-set to ensure the KMCU members do what it takes to experience that fully in their practice.” Dr. Baynes has expertise in the areas of marketing, relationship building, team management and accountability, practice systems and organization, as well as implementation of practice profitability programs. Her primary goal is to help her chiropractic colleagues developed a success plan to maximize their accomplishments and contributions through their chiropractic service to their com-munity.

Six Secrets Every CA Needs to Know to Rock Their Practice Finances and RetentionThe most common problems reported in today’s chiropractic practice are retention and collections issues. Would it surprise you to know that they actually go hand in hand? They relate to the concept of Core Relationship Management with your patients. We all know every new patient wants the answer to four questions: What’s wrong with me? Can you help me? How long will it take? And how much will it cost? The time taken in the first several visits of a patient’s experience in your office to properly indoctrinate them to your clinical and financial protocols will pay dividends for the life of the relationship because this patient will understand, “this is how we do it here”. This information packed and interactive session will review the 6 clinical and 6 corresponding financial steps that make it easy to install the sys-tem of proper Core Relationship Management.

Program Goals/Objectives: At the end of this program, the attendee will be able to:

• Know how to ask the right clinical and financial questions at the first contact with the NP, typically a phone call, to ensure that you and the patient are properly prepared for that first visit.

• Understand and implement the methods for maximizing the first impression in the initial face to face encounter with the patient to gather all appropriate clinical data and set the tone financially.

• Employ the behind the scenes procedures for doctors and team members to properly lay out both clinical treat-ment plans and financial payment plans.

• Deliver important clinical and financial information to the patient that will ensure you answer those big four, initial questions above.

• Automate your treatment and financial plans by implementing sure fire scheduling techniques and programmed payments so nothing slips through the cracks.

• Follow up to ensure your patient really understands your treatment recommendations and their financial responsi-bility so there are no surprises.

Program Topics: Relationship management, phone technique, scripting, financial report of findings, payment plans, patient interaction

Are You Marketing with Your Pants Down?Often Chiropractors are looking for the best new marketing plan or gizmo. While telling the chiropractic story at marketing events, sharing your experience as a chiropractor, and inspiring attendees to come under chiropractic care in your office is a fantastic way to grow your practice, more doctors are living in fear about the compliance issues that can accompany marketing today.

Seems like since the discovery of Chiropractic, offering a free exam, and/or x-rays has been one of the best ways to help patients learn what chiropractic care can do for them. Unfortunately, this process runs afoul of certain Federal and State regulations that prohibit inducements.

You want to be compliant, but are not sure how to continue marketing in this way AND stay compliant with all the rules. All is not lost!

Join this session to learn how to:

• Market your practice AND sleep well at night! • Learn the rules to avoid inducement violations – this is CRITICAL if you’re offering free exams and x-ray to attract

patients.• Learn what you CAN give away for a first visit that will not break the rules. • Learn the language and scripts your team members can begin using now. • Find out how you can use initial visit screening CODES to help you educate potential patients inexpensively AND legally.• Discover why offering free services to some and not others puts YOU and YOUR PRACTICE at risk.

We’ll provide you with exact references you can base your policy on to allow you to feel confidence and certainty in this very important area of compliance for your practice.
