Know Your Numbers! Welcome to our series on “Cracking the Code”, or “Deciphering Your Practice’s Financial Statements”. We will spend the next 3 Podcasts reviewing, deconstructing and dissecting the 3 financial statements you should be reviewing at least monthly; the balance sheet, the income statement (P&L) and the statement of cash flows.
No matter where you work in your organization, you’ll do your job better if you understand basic financial concepts. You’ll be a more effective contributor to your company’s efforts to make money and grow the business. You, as the doctor, are in the very best position to understand what resources and assets must be acquired to deliver exceptional care. Ensuring an excellent financial return on those assets just makes good business sense.
