2015 OFF TO A GOOD START!

For the mature area practices sampled, practice production was up 6.1% and collections were up 6.7% compared to the first quarter of 2014. This is the most growth in these indices since 2004.

Patient flow was up 5.1% with new patients up over 10%. Again, the most significant jump in patient flow we’ve seen in years.

One quarter doesn’t a year make but this is certainly good news. It’s also nice to see that downtime in the Doctors’ schedules is down 11% and in the hygiene schedules down 6.5%.
