Benchmarking the neurology practice

A medical practice, whether operated by a solo physician or by a group, is a business. For a neurology practice to be successful, it must meet performance measures that ensure its viability. The best method of doing this is to benchmark the practice, both against itself over time and against other practices. Crucial medical practice metrics that should be measured are financial performance, staffing efficiency, physician productivity, and patient access. Such measures assist a physician or practice in achieving the goals and objectives that each determines are important to providing quality health care to patients.
