Rightsizing your staff improves productivity

Written by Reed Tinsley | September 29, 2008

Without the right staff numbers and skill mix, your practice's daily needs go unmet. Productivity, profitability, and patient care all suffer.

“Rightsizing” your practice involves calculating the best number and mix of staff to meet your practice goals. It does not necessarily translate to downsizing, staff layoffs, or cost savings, but it does provide major productivity advantages, including

  • becoming as productive as possible
  • increasing profits
  • making providers available to patients while serving them well
  • hiring and keeping the best employees
  • giving providers the best possible support
