Improving Your Practice's Appointment Scheduling
CCPA Purchasing Partners recently interviewed Elizabeth Woodcock, Speaker, Author, and Consultant for Woodcock & Associates, to ask for her advice on helping physician offices improve their process for scheduling patient appointments. Ms. Woodcock offered some great tips regarding practice's appointment schedules. To learn more ways to improve your scheduling and manage missed appointments, be sure to attend Time for a Check-up: Improving the Business Health of Your Practice, a practice management seminar hosted on November 14, 2013 by CCPA Purchasing Partners and the Illinois State Medical Society. Ms. Woodcock will be presenting, "Appointment Scheduling Tips & Tricks" as well as "Best Practices in Successful Billing and Collections: It's Mission Critical in 2013" at the event. Space fills up quickly, so be sure to register today!
CCPAPP: Why is the appointment schedule so important for a medical practice?
EW: The appointment schedule plays a critical role in a medical practice, and yet it always seems to take a back seat to HIPAA, meaningful use, coding - the list could go on and on. The schedule is the main driver of your bottom line; a well-functioning one contributes to a healthy practice, while a poorly designed or inadequately maintained schedule can drive a practice into the ground.
