Practice Health Checks

Whether your Practice has been established for 6 months or 16 years, it is essential to undertake an audit of your Practice from time to time to ensure all systems are up to date, compliant and working as efficiently as possible.

Practice Health Checks have had the following results:

  • Increase in income
  • Increase in Practice productivity
  • Increase in efficiency of Practice procedures
  • Compliance with mandatory legislation

Phase One: Current Situation Analysis

Operations Analysis: Assessment of current policies and procedures. A review of the policy & procedure manual is covered.

Management Analysis: Assessment of current staff positions, roles and job descriptions. Award grades are also covered.

Legal Analysis: Assessment of current legal compliance. Privacy and OH&S are examples.

Financial Analysis: Assessment of the current financial situation of the practice compared to the previous year(s).

Phase Two: Direction Management

Personal and Business targets are discussed.

Strategies for reaching targets are discussed in relation to operations, management, legal requirements and financials of the practice.

A written report will be provided on conclusion of the Health Check.

A Health Check can also assist with accreditation implementation.

A Practice Health Check can provide peace of mind that your practice systems are in good working order and that your practice is heading in the right direction.

"My Psychiatric Practice has been plodding along for many years now and I decided it was about time to get it checked over.  HPC conducted a very thorough review of the admin, legal and financials of the Practice and suggested changes we could make to improve various systems.  We discussed both personal and business targets and set strategies to help us achieve them.  We have implemented several changes into the Practice and we feel its functioning smoothly as a result.  I increased my treatment fees as a result of the Health Check which has seen an increase in my annual turnover.  The Practice is looking healthier after its check up!"
