Do You Know Your
Key Performance Indicators In Real Time?
June 4, 2014 ~ 7:00pm CST
The sad and true fact is most hospitals do not know the real-time numbers that drive their business. For example, do you know your average
transaction cost as of today? How many new clients have you had in the past two weeks? How many active clients do you have as of now? Do you know where your clients live? These are some key indicators that you can
see immediately when you use BeeFree. Why? They are on your dashboard. Sign up for this webinar to learn how to access these key indicators quickly
per doctor and for the hospital overall. It is time to start looking at the numbers daily.
Presented TONIGHT!
