Episode notes
Target New Patients Per Provider
- Aim for 40–50 new patients per provider per month for steady growth when working four to five days.
- Double that target (100–125) when actively building a provider's patient base in year one or two.
Attrition Masks Net Growth
- High new-patient numbers can hide net decline if attrition is ignored.
- Track lost (inactive) patients to know your true growth rate.
Recapture Inactive Patients First
- Measure recapture of inactive patients as part of your new-patient KPI.
- Recapturing inactive patients is often easier and cheaper than finding brand-new patients.
