How Efficient Is Your Practice?
Systems
Protocols
![Page 86: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/86.jpg)
What are Systems and Protocols?
• A Step by step process
• The way YOU want patients to be treated
• The way YOU want to treat your patients
• Systems = Office Functions
• Protocols = Patient Care
![Page 87: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/87.jpg)
Your Systems and Protocols Manual
•Your systems and protocols must change as your practice changes
•They MUST be available to your entire office team and updated as you bring in new modalities or discontinue others
![Page 88: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/88.jpg)
Your Systems and Protocols Manual
Serves as a training tool for both new and existing TEAM members
![Page 89: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/89.jpg)
Why do I Need Protocols?• Improves patient care
• Consistency between providers
• Keeps your entire TEAM on the same page on how a patient is treated, why you are approaching it that way, and how it will be the best way for your patient’s condition to improve
• Improves practice use of ancillary services, DME, etc.
• Effectively incorporates new treatment modalities
![Page 90: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/90.jpg)
Characteristics of a Well-Designed Treatment Protocol
1. Will the protocols enhance patient outcomes?
2. Are the protocols logical and evidence based?
3. Will I be able to document effectively and set up templates to assure compliance? (DME, referrals to ancillary services)
4. Will the protocol make the staff and my life easier?
5. Will the protocols maximize revenue?

Tanglewood Foot Specialists Systems Manual
Topic: Answering a Website Contact Goals:
To quickly and efficiently respond to website contacts
To convert website contacts into office patients
To start the new patient off on a “raving fan” experience in the office Specific Step-by-Step Approach:
1. Every team member will check their office email at least twice a day 2. The contact area of the website will send appointment requests to EVERYBODY on the team. 3. The contacts to respond to will have the subject: Tanglewood Foot Specialists Web Contact Form Completed 4. Do NOT respond to emails with the subject: Book/Report: One Step Ahead: A foot Owner’s Manual….those are handled
automatically 5. WEBSITE CONTACTS MUST BE RETURNED WITHIN 12 hours. Contacts received after hours or on weekends should be
returned on the next business morning. 6. The person responsible for returning the contact is Jessica M. Back up if out/ill is Neeta. 7. Unless the contact wishes otherwise, the best way to contact is by telephone. “Hello, my name is _________ calling from
Tanglewood Foot Specialists. We received your information from our website and am following up.” 8. If contact specifically requests contact by email, please do so with similar language as #7. If you feel that Dr. Schneider
needs to answer the question directly, let him know. 9. Be mindful that some of the contacts may be emergencies and will need a priority appointment. That’s why we have a
website.

Why a Checklist?
• Routine and mundane matters are often overlooked when there are more pressing events
• Missing one key thing can negate any effort put in
• People can lull themselves into skipping steps which don’t USUALLY happen

And blame the WRONG thing!

Too often, we jump to conclusions…

Benefits of Providing Quality Services
• Increasing customer satisfaction with subsequent increase in market share and revenues/profits
• Reducing the cost of poor quality
• Increasing staff productivity to increase morale by the standardization of work processes
![Page 123: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/123.jpg)
The 3 Aspects of Quality Care
1. Measurable Quality
• Is the aspect of care which can be judged by the provider through comparative measures between the actual performance versus the standard one.
2. Appreciative Quality
• Is the aspect of care which can be charged by the experienced practitioners who rely not only on standards but on their personal judgments and experiences as well.
3. Perceptive Quality
• Is the aspect of care which is perceived or judged by the recipient of care.
![Page 124: Improving Patient Outcomes through Clear Comprehensive Communication Protocols - American Podiatric … Consolodated APMA 2018 Presentation.pdf · •Top Practices Marketing Mastermind](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022050100/5f3f5079dfaaf141f0459a1b/html5/thumbnails/124.jpg)
Perceptive Quality- Important!
• Quality perceived by the patient is generally based on the degree of caring expressed by the healthcare providers rather than on the physical environment and technical competence
• The later two are essential to prevent dissatisfaction but do not necessarily lead to patient satisfaction
