Horizontal Diagnostic Practice Assessment
The diagnostic assessment is a first step towards identifying the strengths and challenges of your practice and, more importantly, what to do about them. The assessment tool is a written diagnostic that asks a series of both quantitative and qualitative questions in the following areas:
- Productivity, profitability and efficiency
- Leadership
- Staff management
- Patient management
- Systems management
(scheduling, F/As, insurance, marketing, continuing care, fees)
- Expense management
(goal setting and analysis)
- Technology management
The analysis of your diagnostic will be done by a senior Pride consultant and written recommendations will identify immediate sudden impact steps that can be taken to impact your practice within the month. We will also recommend long-term steps that will create a practice culture that meets all of your goals and expectations.
