Pediatric Practice Management Media Cast

In an amazing feat of timely dicussion, Brandon and Chip cover the topic of compensation models in pediatric practices. It's not just about the pay, it's about the management duties, performance measures, and dissatisfaction that many practices feel with their present methods of paying themselves. We reference many real-life examples and data from a survey of 100s of pediatricians.

Chip will be covering this topic at the PCC 2013 UC and it has been submitted as a topic for presentation at the 2014 NCE with co-host Susanne Madden of The Verden Group.

During the discussion, Brandon references a book entitled, "Physician Compensation Plans" distributed by the MGMA.

Brandon and Chip give some strategic and tactical advice about marketing your pediatric practice. What works? What doesn't? Do you need a WWW page? How about a yellow pages ad? We share some real life, practical examples about how to do the smart thing.
