I break down the true startup costs for a cash-based virtual practice and how I would set it up today. I keep it simple. Legal entity and a mailing address. Malpractice that matches my scope. HIPAA-compliant phone and messaging. A clean video visit setup. Solid intake and consent forms. Easy scheduling and payments. For the charting piece, I show how a light EHR-style workflow can be built with simple tools, and when to add an e-prescribing service like Dose Spot and lab accounts with Quest or Labcorp. I share where I would spend money and where I would hold back. The goal is a lean, reliable system that lets me deliver great care without drowning in software.   Links referenced: Google Workspace, email and calendar HIPAA-friendly telemedicine and messaging, Doxy, similar tools Dose Spot, e-prescribing Quest Diagnostics and Labcorp, lab ordering accounts Calendly ------ -Dr. Mo Digital Nomad Physicians Website Physician Coaching & Consulting: https://www.digitalnomadphysician.com/consult Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course: https://learn.digitalnomadphysician.com/  Dr. Mo Goodreads

Send us a textIf you're running a medical practice in 2025, chances are—without even realizing it—you're leaving real money on the table. And I don't mean pennies—I mean tens or even hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars a year.Here's the thing: most practices aren't bleeding cash from one major hole. They're leaking it quietly, invisibly, in ways that seem small until they snowball. A missed code here. A denied claim that never got appealed. A payer contract that hasn't been touched in five years. And the result? Margins shrink. Stress rises. And groups that should be financially strong start treading water. There's no hemorrhage. Instead, it's death by a thousand paper cuts.The good news is that these problems are almost always fixable. But first, you have to see them. So today, we're going to walk through five of the most common ways medical groups lose money unnecessarily—and, just as importantly, what you can do about each one.If you recognize yourself in any of these, know this: you're not alone. These are common, especially in busy practices where the day-to-day crises take priority. But the practices that tighten these up are the ones that thrive—no matter what the market throws at them.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

I break down how I get real leads for an online medical practice. I start with simple definitions, what a lead is, and how I think about hot, warm, and cold. Then I show the path. A strong elevator pitch. A clean landing page with one clear call to action. A short form that leads to a fast booking link. I talk about social posts and Google Ads, and why the ad only works if the page is tight. I also share my follow up process and why speed to lead matters. The goal is simple, less friction, faster replies, and a page that turns interest into a call.

Stem cells and exosomes continue to shape conversations in the medical aesthetics and wellness industry, but understanding what is legally allowed is just as important as understanding the science.

Certified financial planner Paul Morton discusses his article "Physician practice ownership: risks, rewards, and reality." Paul breaks down the massive differences between an employed physician's financial journey and that of an equity owner physician, exploring the reasons doctors choose the high-risk, high-reward path of private practice: the desire for control over patient culture, the "visionary" mindset, and the potential for a nonlinear financial reward. Paul dives into the challenging realities of managing overhead, dealing with inconsistent income from reimbursements, and the critical importance of strategic tax planning. This episode is a must-listen for any physician weighing the risks of entrepreneurship against the massive potential payoff of a "liquidity event."

Not sure if you should hire a marketing firm or do it yourself, here is a simple way to decide. I get this question a lot. Do I need a marketing company, or can I do it myself? In this episode I break down how I decide. If I have time, skills, and a plan, I DIY. If my practice build already takes all my bandwidth, I hire pros to move faster. I cover the three basics that make a practice work, a medical degree, a kind bedside or website manner, and a way for people to find me. I explain how patients search, why jargon does not convert, and why answering the phone quickly matters more than another ad. Then I share real budget ranges, where most clinics see results, and the common traps that waste money. I finish with a simple plan you can start this week, and how to work with a firm so your spend turns into booked visits. ------ -Dr. Mo Digital Nomad Physicians Website Physician Coaching & Consulting: https://www.digitalnomadphysician.com/consult Build Your Virtual Medical Practice Online Course: https://learn.digitalnomadphysician.com/  Dr. Mo Goodreads

For years, the story of American healthcare has read like an obituary for small, independent medical practices. Faced with shrinking reimbursements, staffing shortages, and rising administrative burden, many physicians traded autonomy for stability, selling to health systems or private equity. Yet beneath the consolidation headlines, a quiet rebellion is taking shape. Across the country, small specialty and multi-site practices are not only surviving but posting strong margins. They're lean, tech-forward, and operationally disciplined, proving that small can be powerful when run like a high-performing business.

Send us a textDebt makes most doctors nervous. But what if avoiding financing is actually holding your practice back?Welcome to Medical Money Matters, the podcast where we tackle the intersection of medicine, money, and management—helping you run your practice like the business it is. Today, we're diving into a topic that physicians often avoid but can't afford to ignore: debt and financing for medical practices.If the very mention of debt makes your stomach turn, you're not alone. Most physicians are naturally conservative when it comes to money—and understandably so. You've been trained to avoid risk. To make decisions based on data, not gut feelings. And let's be honest: medical school didn't prepare you for amortization tables or capital structure discussions.But here's the thing. Avoiding debt doesn't mean avoiding risk. In fact, in some cases, avoiding financing might be the most expensive decision your practice can make.Today, we'll explore what financing options are available to medical groups, break down the difference between debt and equity financing, and help you think clearly about when—and how—to use capital as a strategic tool. By the end of this episode, you'll have a framework for making smart financial decisions that support both the clinical mission and the long-term stability of your organization.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Send us a textWhat's the real cost of not growing your practice when the time is right? Spoiler alert: it's more than just lost revenue.Welcome to Medical Money Matters. Today's episode tackles something many practice leaders know they should think about—but often push to the bottom of the to-do list: when and how to scale your medical practice.Now, if you're a physician or practice administrator, your day is already full. You're seeing patients, solving staffing problems, reviewing financial reports, answering portal messages—and probably skipping lunch to do it. So when the topic of expansion comes up, it can feel overwhelming. Unnecessary. Even reckless.But here's the truth: in many cases, not growing when your practice needs to can be more damaging than growing too soon. And the impact goes beyond your bottom line. We're talking about team burnout, patient dissatisfaction, and even harm to your practice's reputation.The good news? There's a path to healthy, responsible growth. One that doesn't require overextending yourself or guessing your way through the process. That's what we're unpacking today.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Starting a ketamine clinic can mean challenging the status quo - and that can feel isolating when colleagues question your vision or patients don't understand the treatment. But here's what's reassuring: every major breakthrough in medicine started with physicians who were willing to stand alone and persist through doubt.In this compilation episode, we're featuring three remarkable doctors who faced the exact same resistance you might be experiencing. Each was told their ideas wouldn't work. Each had colleagues who doubted them. And each proved that individual practitioners can create massive change when they refuse to take "no" for an answer.Dr. Howard Kornfeld revolutionized addiction medicine by advocating for buprenorphine years before anyone believed in it. Dr. Joe Tafur bridges traditional healing with modern ketamine therapy despite skepticism from both sides. And Dr. Mel Herbert transformed global medical education from a single idea that everyone initially dismissed.These aren't just inspiring stories - they're road maps for how to navigate the challenges in the medical space. If you're building a practice or considering taking the leap, their experiences will show you that the resistance you face isn't a sign you're wrong - it's often a sign you're onto something important.What You'll Learn in This Episode・ How medical pioneers overcome institutional resistance and persist through years of colleagues doubting their vision・ Revolutionary approaches to addiction medicine including Dr. Kornfeld's early advocacy for buprenorphine treatment・ Bridging traditional and modern healing through Dr. Tafur's integration of ceremonial medicine with ketamine therapy・ Global medical education transformation and how Dr. Herbert built a company impacting training in 160+ countries despite never wanting to be an entrepreneurEpisode 41 show notes:00:00 Teaser - “I didn't want to be an entrepreneur…”00:23 Welcome To The Podcast01:36 Dr. Howard Kornfeld: The Power of Small Groups & Early Mentorship02:37 Buprenorphine Breakthrough & Early Adoption13:09 Dr. Joe Tafur: His perspective on colleague resistance21:11 Bridging Worlds: First Ketamine Ceremony21:34 Dr. Mel Herbert: The Birth of EM:RAP Vision22:51 Overcoming Initial Rejections23:21 Building Global Impact30:01 Finding Meaning in Simple Medicine30:23 Ending & ResourcesThanks for listeningListen to each of their full conversations:

We dissect the hidden truths of orthopedic practice, from team building to practice management, physician burnout, and more. We explore insights with Dr. Atanda about the skills that aren't taught in medical school but are crucial for success. Alfred Atanda Jr., MD, is the director of the Sports Medicine Program, and a pediatric orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist. He serves as assistant professor of orthopedic surgery and pediatrics at Sidney Kimmel Medical College of Thomas Jefferson University.  Dr. Atanda is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, completed an internship and orthopedic surgery residency at the University of Chicago Medical Center, and fellowships in pediatric orthopedic surgery at Nemours Children's and in sports medicine at the Rothman Institute at Thomas Jefferson University.  He performs arthroscopic surgery of the knee, elbow, ankle and shoulder, as well as general orthopedic and trauma surgical procedures. His research interests are in upper extremity overuse injury prevention and general orthopedic trauma. Recently, he has developed an interest in technology and digital health innovation and routinely uses telemedicine in his sports medicine practice. He is working with several stakeholders in the organization to re-imagine the process by which pediatric orthopedic patients are triaged, navigated, evaluated and treated during the continuum of their health care experience. Provides care in Wilmington, Del., and Abington, Pa. We answer questions you may have on the things you will encounter when you go into practice as a physician, like: What is an efficient way to do your job as a physician? How do you utilize different members of your team for efficiency? How do you prevent burnout? And more.

In this compelling episode, Michael Jaco brings together Scott McKay and Dr. Kirk Moore for a powerful discussion that challenges mainstream narratives and exposes truths hidden from the public eye. Dr. Moore, recently thrust into the spotlight for his courageous stand against coercive medical mandates, shares his firsthand experience of persecution, resilience, and ultimate vindication. Scott McKay, known as the Patriot Streetfighter, adds his perspective on the broader war being waged against freedom, sovereignty, and the American way of life. Together, they and Michael explore the deep corruption within institutions, the manipulation of public perception, and the ongoing spiritual and cultural battle that defines this moment in history. This conversation sheds light on the courage it takes to defy oppressive systems — and why truth-tellers must continue to rise in the face of overwhelming odds.

Few topics matter more to parents than the medical well-being of their children. We sit down with Brad Myer, MD, to learn from his decades of experience as a leading local pediatrician. The founder of All Star Pediatrics, in Exton, Pennsylvania, Brad spent almost two decades growing an independent medical group. In our conversation, Brad talks us through the buying the practice from Penn Medicine and growing it to serve thousands of families, while navigating the world of health insurance, and recruiting and retaining a top team around him. Now with the management of the practice behind him, Brad walks us through how he gives back to his local community through board leadership and volunteerism with a number of local organizations.OUR PARTNERSouthern Chester County Chamber of CommerceLINKSAll Star PediatricsWebsite: allstarpediatrics.comBrad Dyer on LinkedInAdditional OrganizationsChester County Food BankBetter Days AheadWest Chester Food CupboardPhoenixville Area Community Services (PACS)Community Volunteers in Medicine (CVIM)Phoenixville Free Clinic (Phoenixville Free Medical Clinic)Area HospitalsChildren's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP)Nemours Children's HealthPenn MedicineRelated EpisodesFighting Food Insecurity Locally with Andrea YoundtTranscriptThe full transcript will be posted on our website as soon as it is available.

When Carlos Jorge and Nathalie Simmons Jorge talk about healthcare, it goes far beyond checkups and prescriptions. For them, medicine is equal parts science, integrity and human connection.Their Charlotte-based practice, Companion Health, PLLC, was built on a belief that the best care is rooted in research and compassion, and that sometimes the most powerful thing a doctor can say is, “I don't know —  I have to look into that more.” As entrepreneurs, clinicians and community members, the Jorges have shaped a model of care in their concierge practice that puts people first while navigating the complex business of modern medicine.The Jorges moved to Charlotte in 2002 after completing medical training and business school. What began with Carlos serving uninsured and underinsured patients in the city's growing Hispanic community has evolved into a practice that balances medical expertise with entrepreneurship and a deep commitment to doing what's right for each patient. Today, Carlos serves as chief medical officer, and Nathalie serves as CEO.On this episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast, the Jorges share how they navigate the rise of social media health advice and focus on evidence-based care, the challenge and importance of saying, “I don't know” in medicine and what it's like blending medicine and business as both physicians and entrepreneurs.This episode of The Charlotte Ledger Podcast is sponsored by Child Care Search, a service of Child Care Resources Inc.

In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ interviews Dr. Paola Ballester, CEO and Co-founder of EasyPA, about the broken state of prior authorizations in healthcare. Dr. Ballester shares her journey from pediatrician to tech founder, the real-world impact of administrative burdens on patients and clinicians, and how her AI-driven platform is streamlining processes to put patient care back at the center. Key Takeaways: The Real Cost of Prior Authorizations [2:05] – Administrative hurdles in healthcare lead to denied claims, lost revenue, and wasted time, forcing clinicians to choose between paperwork and patient care. Empathy Drives Disruption [4:35] – Dr. Ballester’s deep empathy for patients and providers inspired her to create a solution that addresses the root frustrations in the system. AI as a Force for Good [27:05] – EasyPA’s AI platform modernizes prior authorizations, making them 10x faster and giving clinicians more time with patients, not paperwork. Systemic Change is Possible [36:45] – With new technology, regulatory mandates, and a focus on patient-centered care, the healthcare system can move beyond outdated, inefficient processes. Quote of the Show [19:40]:"The assumption that physicians need to prove on a per case basis that their intent is anything other than to provide direct patient care based on evidence-based standards is wild." - Paola Ballester Join our Anti-PR newsletter where we’re keeping a watchful and clever eye on PR trends, PR fails, and interesting news in tech so you don't have to.

For years, the story of American healthcare has read like an obituary for small, independent medical practices. Faced with shrinking reimbursements, staffing shortages, and rising administrative burden, many physicians traded autonomy for stability, selling to health systems or private equity. Yet beneath the consolidation headlines, a quiet rebellion is taking shape. Across the country, small specialty and multi-site practices are not only surviving but posting strong margins. They're lean, tech-forward, and operationally disciplined, proving that small can be powerful when run like a high-performing business.

Send us a textKey Opinion Leaders Manal Abdelmalek, Naim Alkhouri, Scott Isaacs and Zobair Younossi join Roger Green to discuss the FDA's approval of semaglutide for patients with non-cirrhotic MASH. This conversation focuses on how the US healthcare system must adapt to handle the growing number of MASH and MASLD patients who might seek treatment, given likely increases in publicity and education.The conversation starts with a focus on the implications of semaglutide approval for hepatologists. Naim states that many hepatologists are currently uncomfortable managing patients on GLP-1 agonists. This will need to change. Manal points out that providers must check for cirrhosis when testing for MASH and understand how to respond accordingly. An increase in the number of providers having access to in-office scanning devices will facilitate this process.Zobair shifts to a larger point:  even if all related specialists integrate MASH into their practices, the actual patient care demand will require alternative pathways in which the responsibility for patient care will rest with specialist APPs. The number of APPs necessary to handle this load and trained to do so does not currently exist in the US. Increased APP training must, and will, become an area for increased investment and focus.After Naim Alkhouri describes some of the differences between resmetirom and semaglutide in terms of practical treatment decisions, the discussion focuses on why MASLD and MASH will create unique challenges for hepatology practices. Manal views the issue as a matter of time; practices cannot absorb large numbers of new, non-urgent patients. Naim suggests that the real issue is the business question: specialists today do not profit simply from treating patients. Zobair agrees with Naim and notes that the challenge is not unique to hepatology. He expresses the hope that AI and efficient database management will make it easier to target, screen, diagnose and treat patients...given sufficient providers (mostly APPs) to treat them. 

Medicine has come a long way in the past 50 years, but here's what's fascinating: many of the breakthrough treatments we use today for pain, addiction, and mental health started with a handful of doctors who were willing to go against the grain.In this conversation, Sam sits down with Dr. Howard Kornfeld, a triple board-certified physician whose career reads like a roadmap of medical innovation. We're talking five decades of pushing boundaries - from emergency medicine to nuclear war prevention to being at the ground floor of psychedelic research.Dr. Kornfeld doesn't just share stories (though he has plenty). He walks us through his transformative experiences at Esalen Institute, his pioneering work with buprenorphine treatment, and his connections to the key figures who literally shaped modern psychedelic medicine as we know it.What makes this conversation essential listening? Dr. Kornfeld's journey shows exactly how questioning established medical practices - while still maintaining rigorous, evidence-based standards - can lead to treatments that actually change lives. His story proves that individual physicians can drive real systemic change, but it requires persistence, innovation, and the willingness to work outside conventional healthcare systems.If you've ever wondered how breakthrough treatments actually make it from "experimental" to mainstream, or if you're curious about what it really takes to challenge medical orthodoxy, this conversation will give you the historical context you need.What You'll Learn in This Episode・How questioning medical orthodoxy led to breakthrough treatments and career-defining insights・The evolution of pain medicine from the 1920s through today and lessons for modern practice・Dr. Kornfeld's journey from emergency medicine through nuclear activism to integrative practice・Historical context for psychedelic medicine's current renaissance and key pioneering figuresEpisode 39 show notes:00:00 Teaser - Physicians as Shamans of Our Culture00:34 Welcome Back To the Podcast 03:04 Challenging Medical Orthodoxy: The Mastectomy Story 07:04 Triple Board Certification Journey 09:41 Cook County Hospital vs Prestigious Academics 12:55 Esalen Institute: A Medical Education Like No Other 17:37 Three Mile Island and Nuclear War Prevention 31:08 Meeting Sasha Shulgin and Early MDMA Research 35:32 Entering Addiction Medicine36:43 The Esalen Psychedelic Research Conference 49:05 From Nuclear Activism to Addiction Medicine 53:037 Buprenorphine: Years Ahead of Everyone Else 1:00:14 The Pendulum Swings of Pain Medicine 1:14:15 Recovery Without Walls Clinic Model 1:17:37 Ketamine's Paradoxical Nature in Addiction 1:20:38 Treating Ketamine Use Disorder 1:22:20 Starting Your Own Practice: Practical Advice 1:28:21 Advice from Your 100-Year-Old Self 1:31:52 Contact Information and ClosingThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Howard Kornfeld at:Recovery Without Walls

https://frequencyspecific.com    https://fsmsports365.com Carolyn McMakin, MA, DC            Kim Pittis, LCSP, (PHYS), MT 00:00 Understanding Movement Patterns and Safety 00:18 Introduction to Frequency Specific Microcurrent (FSM) 01:05 Personal Reflections and Professional Gratitude 04:22 Challenges and Learning in Medical Practice 06:29 The Importance of Continuous Learning 09:30 Case Studies and Practical Applications 13:20 Exploring Historical Medical Texts 23:24 Advanced Techniques in Patient Treatment 31:24 Embracing Curiosity in Movement 32:27 Applying Open-Mindedness to Chronic Illness 34:08 The Challenge of Patient Motivation 37:11 The Role of Hope in Recovery 39:46 Ethics and Confidentiality in Treating Athletes 51:34 Realistic Expectations in Treatment 56:48 Upcoming Events and Announcements **The Nervous System and Movement Patterns** A critical point to understand is that a movement pattern will not sustain or be effectively taught if the nervous system perceives it as unsafe. This highlights the importance of creating a safe foundation for the nervous system to facilitate new movement patterns. FSM plays a crucial role by helping create this safe environment, allowing for long-term pain reduction and the integration of effective movement patterns. **Troubleshooting Chronic Pain and Patient Management** Practitioners often encounter patients who have tried multiple treatments and modalities with little to no success. Understanding why certain muscles or movements are not firing, instead of simplifying diagnoses to issues like "weak glutes," is essential. Engaging with patients through comprehensive assessments, and considering underlying mechanical reasons for persistent issues, are steps FSM practitioners often emphasize. **Neurosensory Integration and Chronic Conditions** For those handling patients with chronic pain, connecting various sensory inputs to the brain's sensory motor cortex can improve patient outcomes. Addressing issues such as nerve adhesion, inflammation, and the mind's perception of pain is vital. FSM's ability to manipulate real-time nervous system responses allows practitioners to re-establish sensory pathways and regain movement functions. **Gratitude, Professional Development, and Patient-Centered Care** A key takeaway for practitioners is to maintain an attitude of gratitude for their profession and the constant learning it provides. Professionals in FSM often discuss the importance of loving what you do and continuously striving to improve your abilities. Additionally, placing the patient first by considering their goals, the realism of achieving these, and understanding when FSM is not the right solution reflect the ethical cores of patient-centered care. **The Importance of Connection and Community** For practitioners, engaging with enthusiastic individuals who share a passion for the same methodologies can enrich their learning experience and provide support. Whether it's helping professional athletes optimally perform or working with patients suffering from chronic illnesses, a community that shares insights and offers collaborative problem-solving is invaluable. Medical students and practitioners should consider how the principles discussed in the FSM podcast can be integrated into their practice to enhance patient outcomes. By understanding the vital role of the nervous system in movement patterns, addressing chronic pain by connecting neural pathways, and maintaining a patient-centered approach, practitioners can navigate complex cases with greater success. The FSM community offers a supportive environment where sharing knowledge and techniques benefits both practitioners and patients alike.
