Schduling Benefits

What is one of the most important things you need to run a medical office? Patients and Clients. Without them there would be no reason to have a clinic running. And how do we make sure that we are getting the most out of our day? By getting as many patients in the clinic and seen by the doctor as possible with overcrowding, and the best way to that is by scheduling in your patients with correct time frames for the visit and leaving enough time for the doctor to get a break.

 

When scheduling patients into your paper or electronic scheduler you must always make sure to never double book to many patients into the same time frame. Another thing to remember is to always try to book family member around the same time so it will be more convenient for them, and always make sure you are giving a reasonable amount of time for each patient and the reason for their visit. For example a general check-up would only need approximately  ten to fifteen minute, where as a full physical can take up to a full thirty minute.

 

Being able to schedule in as many patients in a day will benefit your clinic by having a large number of clientele. This means that your doctor will be busy which means he will be making a lot of money. If the doctor makes a lot of money so will you. The busier your office is the more you can count on your job and the better you will feel when you know that you can help more people get the help that they need.
