This book is one of my all time favorites. It succinctly covers all aspects and principles of what it takes to be a successful business. Yes, a medical practice is a REAL business!</p><p>2. Practice management is a more difficult business than other kinds of services because of higher expectations, higher risks, and an adversarial payment environment. A professional approach is needed to market to patients, manage and motivate staff, handle office processes and technology, maintain compliance, and most importantly, get paid in full and on time.</p><p>Yet medical schools do not prepare physicians with adequate skills to succeed in business. If you don't have the time for an MBA program and you don't have access to trustworthy consultants or reliable outsourced service providers, then this book is for you. Invest the time it takes you to read this book back into your daily practice. If you get through this book in fifteen hours, and if you use just three ideas out of hundreds, and if each one idea saves you just 1/100th of your daily working time and effort--that will be a savings of 60 hours per year, or a net annual profit on time invested of 300%.</p><p>3. Do you know of any other investment that nets you 300% annually?</p><br>
