How do you measure good results inside your dental practice? Do you measure good results by the size of one's practice as well as the quantity of patient files? Do you measure success by the volume of earnings the practice produces for you, the Dental CEO?

There's a different way for you to measure your practice in 2012. This way has nothing to accomplish together with your variety of workers or expense of treatment options. This way measures basic, crucial locations of one's dental practice, called the Long-Term Success Assessment. I created the Long-Term Accomplishment Assessment soon after seeing my Dental Coaching clientele have a need to evaluate and assessment their practices on a deeper level.

Guidelines: Answer each query honestly. If the statement is correct as concerns your practice, verify it off. If it really is not accurate, leave it blank until you might have accomplished what it takes to create it true. Preserve at it until all of the items are checked off:

LONG-TERM Results ASSESSMENT

> My practice's Vision Statement does greater than just "sounding good"; it is authentic and reflects my feelings and thoughts perfectly.
> The dental team members know, stick to and stand behind the Vision Statement.
> There's a rigorous, but lucrative, incentive strategy for all employees to encourage efficiency and group function.
> My patients can simply articulate the rewards of my services and they do so often, thereby creating referrals for the practice.
> I'm developing a powerful, optimistic reputation in my practice niche.
> I continually add value to my service.
> I never just retain up with my competitors, I eclipse them by setting my targets greater, deeper and generating them exclusive to me.
> I update my Policies and Procedures manual and Economic Agreement annually.
> I have place together a savvy, Board of Advisors with whom I meet semi-annually. I respond to their counsel and requested action methods.
> I annually upgrade all aspects of my operational systems so as to attain the highest possible productivity.
> I give my staff a pat on the back when they deserve it. I reward them generously once they go above and beyond.
> I take the time for you to listen to my staff, solicit suggestions and make use of the ideal ones in day-to-day practice operations.
> I smile and possess a optimistic attitude towards my staff, patients, competitors and neighborhood.
> I routinely invest in education for myself and employees.

I utilize the experienced solutions of a coach, CPA or economic advisor, lawyer along with other service-providers to produce confident that my practice is in top-notch shape.
If you drill down to measure these areas of your practice, you determine weaknesses and may celebrate accomplishments. Should you have few checkmarks, don't beat oneself up. Just perform along with your coach or other trusted advisor to create Action Actions. Re-visit this assessment month-to-month, at the start out of each month.
