Consider starting your year with a planning meeting with your entire team with the purpose of goal setting and developing an action plan to achieve the goals you have set.

One of Gary’s goals with each of his clients is to do better every year. He is a big believer that you are improving or declining. Some might say there is a third option, staying the same, but Gary believes staying the same is going backward in business since overhead inevitably increases yearly.

In this episode, Gary presents 8 specific strategies to make 2023 your best year. 

Gary offers specific tactics within each strategy that will allow you to use the strategy to its full potential.

  • 00:31:47 – Question 1 – I’ve had it with PPO plans!!! Where is the best place to start to successfully resign from PPO Plans?
  • 00:36:35 – Question 2 – I really like your recommendation to start tracking our call conversion percentage. How is the best way to do this?
  • 00:37:50 – Question 3 – Thanks to your encouragement, I have started to track the percentage of available hygiene appointments that we fill each month. However, the data is a bit discouraging. We are currently averaging between 78 – 82% filled. How is the best way to get our performance up to your recommendation of 92% or more?
  • 00:42:48 – Question 4 – I have a very good admin team, but they are often overwhelmed with the day-to-day tasks of checking patients in, checking patients out, collecting at time of service and answering the phones. My team members often tell me that they don’t have time to work on my schedule or to work on the hygiene schedule. Any suggestions?
