The Profit Loop With Alisa Conner

Why Your Ortho Schedule Is Full But Your Margins Are Shrinking

Listen Later

If your orthopedic practice is busy but the margins feel tighter than they should, referral leakage is almost certainly part of the equation.

In this episode of The Profit Loop, Alisa Conner walks through the financial reality of what happens when referred patients stall out before they ever reach the schedule, and why this problem remains invisible on most practice reports.

You'll hear:

  • Why average orthopedic practices lose 20–30% of their referral traction (with published estimates reaching 65%)
  • How three lost surgical cases per week add up to nearly a million dollars annually, before downstream losses
  • The PT outbound referral problem: why referring patients out could be costing you $624K+ per year in surgical revenue
  • The three root causes behind most orthopedic referral leakage (and why "more scheduling" doesn't fix any of them)
  • A five-step action plan you can start on this week

    • This episode is especially relevant for practice administrators who are tired of managing referral fire drills with no system behind them.
