Benchmarking your practice.
A medical practice is a business and as such is governed by the principles of good business management; these include planning, budgeting, and supervision. A benchmark comparison of a practice is the first step in identifying the factors that determine the financial performance of the practice. However, it is only a first step. Performance is also measured against expectations. A benchmark comparison against market data is not the only tool to use in managing a business successfully. Creating a financial budget together with performance standards is essential to developing and maintaining a healthy practice.
