Organizations must be willing to invest in management and not view it as a necessary expense. Governing bodies simply cannot underestimate the value and potential return of a strong management team.
Every year an estimated 20% of all medical groups and physician networks lose their senior manager for one reason or another. As a consequence, many face general revenue and cost management problems and a loss of valuable time.
Our consultants have experience in managing medical practices of many specialties and in many parts of the country. Therefore, Wipfli has the expertise in helping our clients through this transition by taking a comprehensive approach that typically includes:
- Knowing the ins and outs of your business as well as you do.
- Getting to know you and your specific needs. We find out about your culture and what will work within your organization
- Identifying your short and long-term needs to ensure we can effectively and efficiently make the right "fit."
Our process includes:
- Assessing the current financial and operating performance of the organization
- Developing a performance improvement work plan (if needed)
- Developing a candidate "must have" list of qualifications
- Developing a detailed job description
- Designing a competitive and affordable compensation and benefits package
- Posting/marketing of the position including networking with our contacts
- Conducting initial screening interviews
- Conducting comprehensive subsequent interviews of finalists
- Checking references
- Negotiating with the chosen candidate
- Training/orientating the successful finalist (if needed)
