Getting Your Urogynecology Visits “Up and Running”: Key Questionnaires, Forms and Coding Tips

Abstract

In today’s competitive and ever-changing marketplace, no medical practice has an unlimited budget; more often, there is barely enough cash flow to meet current needs and obligations. Resources such as money, time, and space seem to be literally shrinking. Unfortunately, when the ink on the bottom line turns red, many physician leaders forced to cut costs often do so by laying off valuable staff. This downsizing often serves to further strain the productivity of the practice. An alternative to such downsizing can usually be found by adding nontraditional services or products, expanding existing products, or creating new service offerings.
