EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS

• The simpler the compensation structure, the easier it will be to run & grow your practice!
  • Having a solid, simple compensation structure in place will cut down on administrative time, the frustration that comes along with tracking payroll, and will help you manage the overall finances of the practice with ease
• Interns & pre-licensed clinicians can be supervised by a clinical director
  • The weight the clinical director is taking off your shoulders, along with the added income of the inters/pre-licensed clinicians help compensate for the director's overall salary and still leaves room for growth
• What percentage should you start new clinicians at in order to sustain your practice in the long run?
  • The ideal percentage for a pre-licensed clinician is around 40% while a full licensed clinician is around 45-50%
  • This leaves room for benefits, raises, bonuses, insurance, etc.
