Essential guidebook for new or troubled medical practices
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
I'm a professional medical biller and accounts receivable specialist - a second career following a quarter century of working for corporations large and small. I was shocked to see the low level of business acumen many physicians have, whether they are new to their profession or have been in business for many years. When I read this book I appreciated that Laura Sachs is one of the foremost experts in the field, and quickly added it to my short list of Must Have publications for my most troubled clients. This is a no-nonsense, practical guide suitable for any size practice. The topics covered range from the purely financial to management of personnel, maintenance of the physical environment, estate planning, dress codes and hygiene, and more. It has dozens of checklists and hundreds of tips for the physician and his staff; nothing is left out.Unfortunately, the book is somewhat dated. It apparently had only one printing, in 1991, and could stand updating in areas such as computerization of medical records, insurance industry changes, and the legal and regulatory climate. Nevertheless, much of the advice in this book is timeless, and the $70 price tag should be considered a very wise investment.
