Visitors may use the link to take a test drive of the new Posture Pro posture analysis software. What's New in Build 5.55? Build 5.55 is a minor upgrade with a major feature added. Posture Pro could always compare one exam to another. Now it can plot the results of all exams on a single graph or print a series of pictures showing the posture changes over time. Using this new feature, it's easy to show a patient how posture changes, and therefore posture stresses, have changed. More importantly, this graph will show the patient how much care is still needed? If a patient only kept two more appointments due to this feature, Posture Pro is paid for in a month, or less! Whether you are upgrading, upgrades are free or looking at Posture Pro for the first time, I think you will find this new feature of great value to your practice.

For sale complete x-ray set up E-mail message this week .. telephone technique Chiropractic Assistant 101 incorporates phone etiquette and proper methods to lead new and established patients towards our way of thought. Practice management requires a proper team implementing procedures that result in a common successful goal. Complacency on your end of the line results in passive success with ultimately slippage of statistics and revenue. Careful review of scripts and intent must be maintained to keep the line clear of clutter and chatter. Business dictates that your front desk CA be armed with knowledge and confrontational skills to succeed. Anything less, results in the slip and slide toward an average practice. If you wish to extend beyond average, look to the source and the telephone is the first threshold to cross before new patients enter your door. The telephone is also the avenue in which most patient contact is maintained. If the instrument is used sparingly or wrongly, results will show. Poor retention as well as slipshod reactivation. Be mindful of this by reviewing personal tone, commitment toward success and the goals and action steps in hand during every staff meeting. If your numbers are declining or remaining flat, discuss how often and what is being projected from the phone. Is there a game plan, regularity of use and to whom? Is the proper person dedicated to use it and are they knowledgeable to recapture the lost patient, the reluctant patient, the fearful patient the impatient patient, the forgetful patient or that negative patient you wish would never Š.? It takes a special breed of human to interact with others and too often the weakest of them are handed the phone. What a shame that a simple tool, laying flat on a desk, can either make or break a living breathing machine such as your office. The best adjustment, the most creative workshop, the noblest of intent can be diminished if the lifeline of a business is shortchanged or rendered impotent. Itıll take more than a practice boosting Viagra to stimulate the practice if this lifeline is flaccid. It will take education, training, practice and mindfulness of the purpose and overall goal you wish to reach. Pay attention to the phone and donıt take it lightly. Begin role playing and boost the desire to achieve to those you place this huge responsibility on. It is tough to get a second chance at a first impression.
