Increase Treatment Acceptance for Patients In Office
Step 1: Use the Morning Huddle to Review Yesterday’s Performance
Without monitoring how you are performing it is hard to make steady improvements. The Morning Huddle allows you to quickly and easily see how your team performed yesterday with getting treatment accepted.
Celebrate wins & quickly discuss an opportunity for improvement
It is important that you keep it positive when discussing past performance.
We recommend you start by finding what went well yesterday and promoting as many good things as possible.
If there were multiple areas you fell short yesterday, pick one to focus on and make better today. There is no use in overwhelming your team with everything they need to fix.
