Practice Management

Appointment Scheduling: 

Practice management starts with scheduling an appointment of the patient.  All the appointments scheduled should be confirmed a day before the appointment.  By this way, the physician can be aware of the schedule for that day and accommodate stat patients, walk-in patients, etc.

Appointment Cancellation:

All the appointments that are cancelled or rescheduled should be tracked.  This helps the physician's office to maintain the resources and use them at its very best.


No Show:

No show is one of the major issues in a physician's office.  No shows should be handled very carefully.  Always make sure your patients are aware of the charge for a no show.  Before sending a bill to a no show, it is better to call the patient and analyse the reason for not showing up.  If there is really a good reason for not showing up, it is always better waive the charge and reschedule the appointment.  This also helps in growth of your practice.
