UNIQUE STRATEGIES FOR PHYSICIANS

Research

Corporate health care providers seize a competitive advantage by empirically knowing their competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, how referring physicians and prospective patients view them and what motivates them to refer, patient and customer behavioral changes, how patients independently choose doctors or hospitals in your market, expansion opportunities, whether imaging, an ASC or adding an internally referred complimentary specialty and other critical pathways to increased revenues and competitive advantage.

We identify opportunities, analyze them, quantify them and provide the resources and expertise to capitalize on them.

We even the playing field and make the advantage yours – an advantage that can make a dramatic impact on today’s revenues and tomorrow’s prosperity – and allow you to invest your resources profitably.

Strategy and Tactics

What strategies are best for you to attract the most desirable patients? Would a merger or acquisition make sense? Would expanding your group to encompass a greater portion, or the entire cycle of care, from diagnosis to surgery and aftercare make sense and what would it cost and deliver? How can you become or position yourself for upcoming consolidations and accountable care organizations? How do you protect your practice and income from downward reimbursement pressure and upcoming regulatory changes? Would becoming a provider for a large, local self-insured employer make sense and how would you make that happen?

We have the experience and expertise to address these and many other concerns of the present and the future.

Branding and Authority

We understand that today’s patients increasingly do not choose physicians, and physicians do not refer to other physicians, based upon their credentials, office capabilities or even proximity. They make their choices based upon a trust that they will get better in your care. They want the best. From their perspective, their life, or quality of life, depends on making the right choice.

The perception of and a reputation for excellence, being an authority in your specialty and a solutions provider matched with a name and logo is a powerful brand.

We use a variety of strategies and tactics to help the public and referring physicians to connect your reputation as the best to your name and logo.

Human nature, and accessibility, does the rest.

Marketing

Our goal is not to increase traffic, but to attract a majority of the most desirable patients to your center as efficiently and effectively as possible – with a focus on and quantification of return on investment.

We work with you to identify your best patient types. We focus your brand and use a customized selection of an arsenal of sales and marketing techniques, tactics and technologies from video to digital to internet to public relations and educational outreach to establish your center as the authority for your most desirable patients – and draw patients to you.

We are highly experienced and expert at every primary aspect of marketing including strategic development, brand management, creative, video production, print and digital graphic design, public relations, internet and social media including search engine marketing and management and interactive website design and development engineered to attract and schedule patients.

Operational Process Improvement

Attracting the most desirable patients is only half of the task.

Today’s patients equate efficiency and quality of services, starting with their entry into the waiting room, with quality and competency of care.

Improving operational processes to ensure consistent, superior services, communication and easy access to appointments and care does much more than retain patients and provide a positive patient experience – it garners the most coveted marketing of all – referrals and positive word of mouth.

We have decades of operational experience that can meet, and change, patient expectations in a multitude of ways providing substantial competitive advantages over the status quo.

What’s more, our process improvement techniques can make your operations more efficient, effective and, often, less expensive.
