Listen Later

In Episode 58 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness, titled "Optimizing Cash Flow for Practice Owners," host Norm Wright, a Certified Financial Planner, focuses on empowering physician practice owners with strategies to enhance cash flow, the lifeblood of their business and personal wealth. Building on Episode 56’s emphasis on expert financial guidance and celebrating over 50 episodes, Norm highlights a 2025 AMA report showing 30% of practices lose profits due to poor cash flow management. He outlines three key strategies: analyzing revenue streams to catch missed income (like Dr. Patel’s $50,000 billing recovery), controlling expenses by cutting non-essentials (as Dr. Elena did to save 15%), and reserving 15–20% of profits for growth or emergencies to avoid crises noted in a 2025 Becker’s report. With actionable steps like auditing billing, trimming costs, and meeting with a CFP, this episode equips doctors to turn their practices into wealth-building engines while reducing financial stress. Examples in this episode are hypothetical and not representative of a specific individual.
