Do you know how to manage a chiropractic office? What practice performance metrics do you keep an eye on?
Many chiropractors think of themselves as healers first and business people second, but if you want to succeed in your practice you have to be both. Your business performance will not take care of itself. The good news is that you can put systems in place that will help make practice management nearly automatic.
Let’s face it, staff management is hard. You have to choose the right people, and then make sure they do their jobs. It sounds simple, but it’s not easy. You can lose hundreds of thousands of dollars if you get it wrong.
Once you’ve selected your staff, sit down and think about what you need your systems to do. Which practice performance metrics are absolutely crucial to you? Usually you need to improve the communication between you, the front desk, and the back staff. How do you let the office manager know what your schedule’s looking like when you’re really busy? Learning how to manage a chiropractic office is a process of self-knowledge. You’re unique and so is your business.
First, know your daily routines. What do you need in order to be clear and present with your patients and your staff? Make that a daily priority. Then move the timeline out to the week. Do you have weekly staff meetings? You should. Your staff knows what’s going on. They know how your clients feel; they know where the problem areas are. Their input is extremely valuable to your chiropractic business and can give you an idea of what key performance indicators you need to track. Now, are you looking at your collections and billables on a monthly basis? What about your quarterly and annual reviews?
