Simple revenue leaks…
• Coding…This area should be reviewed regularly…
• Collecting before the patient leaves
• Annual managed care contract reviews
• Credentialing properly
• Financial audit of payments (variance analysis)
Does the patient know they need us?
• Practices must begin to understand how to grow
the revenue of the practice.
• Relying on the model of waiting for referrals or simple
word of mouth is becoming much more difficult to
sustain…
• What does the patient need…AND…
• What does the patient want?
