Healthcare industry’s first practice growth survey report reveals practice performance data and provider sentiment
SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — PatientPop, the healthcare leader in practice growth technology, today released its 2020 practice growth survey report. Results from the nationwide survey of medical and dental professionals highlight the evolving challenges, successes, and performance gaps surrounding practice growth. Participants also reveal their level of satisfaction working in private practice and outlook for the future.
The report also sheds light on how online review management correlates to key practice achievements. Healthcare providers who consider online reviews an important part of their practice success are more likely to report strong revenue, an efficient workflow, effective patient communication, and strong market visibility.
“High-performing practices must continually evolve. This report gives healthcare providers a look at what’s necessary to succeed and where industry gaps remain today,” said Luke Kervin, PatientPop Co-founder and Co-CEO. “For instance, a practice’s online reputation is a major decision-making factor for patients, but one-quarter of providers say they do not address it. We found those who prioritize reputation management are more successful across other critical business areas — clearly, there are operational factors that still require improvement to meet patient expectations.”
Key findings from the survey include:
- Providers who consider online reviews an important part of their success are more likely to report to strong revenue, efficient workflow, patient volume, and strong market visibility.
- One-quarter of healthcare providers do not currently address their online reputation or reviews.
- Fewer than one-in-four healthcare providers say their practice has strong visibility in their market.
- Patient acquisition is a major frustration for dental practices (29 percent).
- 35 percent of providers say communicating with their patients digitally is most important to the success of their practice.
- Managing insurance-related tasks is considered the greatest frustration at healthcare practices, listed by nearly half of all respondents.
