DC needs info on chiropractic care for psoriatic arthritis .. For Sale Insight Millennium .. E-mail message .. Economic Turmoil Unless you have been hiding with Ben Laden in some cave and have not heard the news .. we are in the midst of worldwide economic instability. Throughout every major city and hamlet .. corporations are in the process of reevaluating their profit and losses and either downsizing or spending less. Insurance companies will be getting hard hit with liability claims and less premiums when their insured either lose jobs or cancel policies. People .. our patients .. will reorient their thinking about what is necessary and consider their health and wellness an elective rather than a primary thought. Let廣 face facts and tune into reality .. this is the near future within healthcare and related industries. So what can we do? Above the most darkest cloud is always a clear sky .. if you wish to succeed in this climate the time is now to begin hovering above the fray. Never before has the importance of proper practice management and public relations been as important. If you wait for the hammer of reality to strike you and your practice in the head .. it may be too late. Now .. even before you sense a change of your financial climate or see the hand writing on the walls within your community .. is the time to determine your strategic planning and fill the voids of poor service and unfruitful practice promoting. First .. if you are doing well .. I hope you are .. thank those that assist you in making it happen. There is no greater ego booster than a great pat on the back and a huge thank you. Bonus those that help your practice grow. Second .. thank your patients and be clear of your purpose and their responsibility in regaining and maintaining Health and Wellness as well as their role in telling others. Third .. consider what you have done in the last twelve months to promote your practice from within and from without. What worked and what didn廠. Was it all cost effective or more money just flushed in the proverbial marketing toilet. Do you promote during holiday periods or have special days and workshops for your patients and community? Fourth .. and most important .. is your office management a sieve. Are you losing as many patients as you get? Fifth and as important .. make the next few months a period of learning and hunkering down. Clean up your consultations and streamline your report of findings. Be firm with your resolve and tell patients the truth about themselves and chiropractic .. not what you think they wish to hear. Practice your financial plans so everyone can afford care even if they pay over time. There are chiropractic periodicals to read .. seminars to attend .. consultants to consider as coaches and colleagues to ask questions to .. my webpage has a number of regional mentors .. just check there. This is not the time to be Chicken Little .. the sky is not falling This is the time to consolidate .. consider and reconsider and plan your success as a savvy professional. Stress breeds a need for chiropractic care. Ergonomics breeds a need for chiropractic care. Injuries breeds a need for chiropractic care. Health and Wellness breeds a need for chiropractic care. Is there a better time for our services .. a better time to assist our communities? Be creative with promoting your office and with financial access for your care. You built it .. they will come. This is the American way and how personally to avoid economic turmoil. Have a Great Day Dr. M Postings: Associate position available in beautiful Bucks County, PA: Salary with incentives for growth.
