For dental office managers: Will 2015 be your year?

Article

My answer to the question above is, "Definitely!" Flipping the calendar affords you the opportunity to change up systems that are inefficient, hard to administer, or were disappointments. By running your 2014 summary reports, you’ll be able to see if you have enough data to make these decisions. Our members love to compare these metrics from year to year:

New patient numbers
Production and collectionReferral sourcesTreatment plans left outstanding

MUST-READ: How to overcome the 3 most common battles in the dental practice

This is not a complete list of statistics you should review, but it’s a starting point. Are your new patient numbers following an upward growth model? If not, how can you change up your marketing or referral programs? Are you tracking referral sources? It’s the only way you can determine how effective your marketing campaigns have been. The outstanding treatment plan report is lengthy but always full of surprises. Names will appear that you have forgotten about. With most insurance benefits resetting for the New Year, this is a good time to reach out. Block off time to make strategic observations then strategic decisions for a fantastic 2015!
