Three Ways To Schedule More Spinal Screenings In Your Community Today!
Dr. Tabor Smith has done over 300 spinal screenings so far in his career, and every month he adds 2-3 more screenings to that total. Today he runs a thriving practice in Houston TX that he built from the ground up, through consistent spinal screenings and monthly dinner workshops. Genesis Chiropractic Software recently connected with Dr. Tabor and asked him to share some strategies on how chiropractors can set up more screenings in their community. Below are 3 different ways to find more screening opportunities in your community. According to Dr. Tabor, the key to setting up screenings is to be persistent and consistent with your efforts. You may not be successful in your first few attempts, but that doesn’t mean you give up. It means you get excited because you are that much closer to success! 1. Know the schedule of every big venue in your community. This one tip can make a huge difference in your practice. If you want to grow your practice and get more involved in your community so you can help more people, then you need to be at every event that happens around your office. The best way to stay up-to-date on community events is to go to the place that big events happen. If you know the schedule of every civic center, gymnasium, and large auditorium in your community you will never miss the “next big event”! 2. Use Google to find shows and fairs going on in your community. You or your staff should be searching for events at least once a month. Schedule a time to sit down on your computer and search for events, shows, and fairs. Here is how you do it – First, go to Google.com, then type in “Events” and “Your Zip Code”. You will find page after page of listings. Go through each one and determine whether or not it would be a good fit for your office. Make a list of the events you want to attend so you can follow up later. Then go back to Google.com and type in “Show” and “Your Zip Code”. You will find page after page of listings. Go though each one and determine whether or not each show would be a good fit for your office. Make a list of the shows you want to attend so you can follow up later. Then go back to Google.com and type in “fair” and “Your Zip Code”. Again, you will find page after page of listings. Go through each one and determine whether or not it would be a good fit for your office. Pay particular attention to Health Fairs as they can be some of the best places to do a spinal screening. 3. Contact all the Corporations and businesses in your community, and ask them if they have an annual health fair. Granted, this is hit-or-miss, but you would be surprised at how many churches and corporations in your community actually have annual health fairs. You can use the same Google.com method described above to locate and gather contact info for all the corporations and churches around your office. Then call them and simply ask them if they have an annual health fair. If they do, ask them how you can get involved. If they don’t ask them if you can help them to start one! Thanks for taking the time to read my blog. If there’s ever anything I can do for you, let me know. Tabor Smith D.C.

Electronic Chiropractic Scheduling System Dramatically Reduces Patient No Shows
Reduce Patient No Shows For chiropractors lost income due to patient no shows and the problems associated with rescheduling can be daunting. It is a dilemma that has perplexed practitioners for decades whether a patient was supposed to arrive for their first or a return visit. There were attempts to use electronic schedulers to ensure appointments would be kept in order to maximized patient care and protect the integrity of chiropractic billing. But the electronic schedulers lacked the sophistication that allowed them to be fully integrated with the doctor’s practice. They were merely enhanced organizers and not an active part of the scheduling process. Problems Identified The basic problems from missed appointments and how they affected chiropractic billing were fairly clear. With the average rate of no shows in a practice averaging 30%, a chiropractor who saw 20 patients per day would average 6 no-shows. At $30 per visit, the doctor would lose $900 per week and more than $45,000 per year. Plus the lost visits create a rescheduling nightmare and concerns regarding the continued well being of patients and patient loyalty. Chiropractors and companies hoping to help them solve their scheduling problems had to make the scheduling system much more efficient and dynamic. Integration Key Billing Precision was a company that focused its energies on solving the chiropractic billing dilemma that resulted from so many missed appointments. The challenge was to greatly reduce no-shows and un-billable appointments by creating a new type of billing system. The overall intended results were designed to make offices more productive and efficient. The results of developing and offering an integrated system included: A scheduler that automatically called to remind patients a week and/or a day prior to their appointment. The ability to see if insurance coverage would be in effect at the time an appointment was put into the schedule. Easy to read end of the day summations for no-shows, unbilled and unbillable appointments. Better use of office personnel time and a reduction of office costs. Going Beyond Electronic Paper Early management schedulers were little more than electronic diaries. The real solution lay in a web-based system that could be configured for individual offices and fully integrated with every aspect of scheduling. Features of such a system that works successfully are clearly evidenced by software created by companies such as Precision Billing. These included: Programmable reminders. Point of Service alerts for co-pays, unpaid balances and referrals. Simple and clear color-coded identification methods for types of appointments. The ability to schedule from various sites and for numerous providers. Detailed reports related to all scheduling aspects, including daily schedules, load reports, missed appointments, free time, canceled appointments and more. The integration of patient demographics, billing and Electronic Medical Records documentation. Complexity Simplified Chiropractic billing, which has always been an amazingly complex and time-consuming part of a practice, has been simplified and streamlined by web-based software and programming. This has made for a much more efficient and productive scheduling system with the result being a better use of office personnel and time, fewer missed appointments and a more cohesive and healthier patient base.
