Healthcare Practice Management

services healthcare practice managementWhile the business side of private practice has nothing to do with your clinical training, the business side can throw challenges at you daily. Challenges regarding people, billing and collections, expenses, compliance with government regulations and insurance contacts, and on and on. What’s more, these challenges are often interrelated. Taken together these fall into Healthcare Practice Management, and the need for it grows each year.

Healthcare Practice Management at PBM
