MMM [Patient Retention] Revamp Your Patient Experience with These 4 Key Tips

In this week's Monday Morning Marketing episode, I'm joined with dental marketing expert Christa Nes-Iadicola, who shares four key tips for a great patient experience: consistency, simplicity, cohesiveness, and connection. Consistency means patients know what to expect when they visit and you deliver! Simplicity ensures that the whole process is low friction, with easy scheduling and no need to re-ask questions. Cohesiveness makes sure your team is on the same page, answering commonly asked questions in a uniform fashion. Lastly, connection is the unique experience aspect, calling your patients by name and taking detailed chart notes. She also emphasizes approaching patients with servitude, not entitlement, and sending personal letters to patients who leave. Drop in on my conversation with Christa for valuable insights on improving your patients' experience!‍You can reach out to Christa Nes-Iadicola here:Email: info@christanesllc.comWebsiteFacebook‍Other Mentions and Links:Denta DentalHIPAA - The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act‍‍If you want your questions answered on Monday Morning Marketing, ask me on these platforms:My Newsletter: https://thedentalmarketer.lpages.co/newsletter/The Dental Marketer Society Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2031814726927041‍Our Sponsors & Their Exclusive Deals:‍Dandy | The Fully Digital, US-based Dental Lab‍For a completely FREE 3Shape Trios 3 scanner & $250 in lab credit click here: meetdandy.com/affiliate/tdm !‍Thank you for supporting the podcast by checking out our sponsors!‍Episode Transcript (Auto-Generated - Please Excuse Errors)‍Michael: Hey Krista, so talk to us about patient retention. How can we utilize this, or what advice or suggestions can you give us? That will help us with this. Christa: Yes, Michael? So I think when you talk about patient retention, it really comes down to, one thing, and that's a great patient experience.And to have a great patient experience, I think you really need to dial in for. Key points. and the first one is consistency. You have to have your systems and protocol in place. Um, the patient needs to know what to expect for that appointment, and then you need to deliver that. So once that is done, that's the first step in trust.After you repeat that process in every area of your practice, the patients begin to trust you. So, um, when you think about systems and protocol that you need to have in place to have good patient retention, There really are a lot that go into it, but if you look at just a few, look at your policies, look at your cancellation policy.Look at your confirmation policy. Do your patients know what they are or are they calling to cancel their appointment? And the staff is. Annoyed that they're canceling their appointment within two short timeframe, but they never were aware of your policy. That creates friction between the staff and the patient, obviously.So the patients need to know exactly what to expect on every level. So this is prepping them for their appointments. If it's a first appointment, even if it's a return appointment, they want to know what to expect. And once you're hitting those x. Expectations, um, then the patient starts to trust you. I think you also have to think about your policies when it comes to follow up.So when you're following up with patients that cancel, are we just letting them fall through the cracks and then picking it up at another time when they're not necessarily thinking about that appointment anymore? Or is there a good protocol in place that we've became consistent on within the staff?obviously when you're looking at patient retention, your attrition rate will start to go up as soon as those patients hit a certain month mark, and they're not reappointing. So look up at how you're reappointing. Are you reappointing? And what is your follow-up system look like? Most offices these days use um, automation, which is great, but when are you going to get a personal touch and.in that process with the patient. So is what I find with the offices that I work with is that a lot of staff will have limiting beliefs, in this area specifically. They'll say, well, I'm looking at their history and it shows that we've texted them this many times. I'm not going to reach out and annoy them.But the simplest form of communication and even texting, still using the automation, but just saying, hi, this is Krista from this dentist office, is a way that your patients do start to respond. Um, and at times you may have to, yes, pick up the phone and contact them directly, but patients are just like us busy, so they're appreciative of that.So I think. , there's a a big hold up with the staff that I see that are in charge of doing this process. It's just not being done because they simply don't think it needs to be, or they feel like they're annoying patients when they do that. So the second one, that I think is a key factor, especially in today's world.Like I said, patients are busy is simplicity. So is it easy to schedule in your practice? do you send online forms? But in that initial phone call you're asking further address, . No. So I see a lot of redundancies like that. Or are you having them fill out your med history form, which obviously is necessary and they're entering all their insurance information.But then when they come in, that's the first question that you're asking them. Do you have a copy of your insurance card? Makes the patient feel like, well, why did I spend all that time doing it for you? So we really need to get the simplicity in the office and look at, again, look at all of your. , are they simple for the patient or are they about us?So are they about making our jobs easier or are they simple for the patient? And I believe that, um, when you really take a step back and look at the patient experience and look at the staff process, that it all can be intertwined and be easy for the patient and still work for the staff. but it does take some work to get it there.So, um, a huge one that I see, and I was actually in an office just this morning and this happened was, insurance, right? Insurance is confusing for patients. A lot of times patients will have a medical insurance card and it won't have the dental on it, and they'll say, well, I didn't get it until card, which is true.And you know, people that work in a dentist's office, staff members do know that to be true and. , I can think of the top three in my area that are notorious dental insurances for not giving a dental card. Right? And I, I would say Delta is one of those among any area, and we all know and have the capability to log into that Delta website, type in a social and a birthdate when that patient is standing in front of you.and pull their benefits up within, I won't even say minutes, within a minute. So that's something that's totally at our reach that I see offices passing back to the patient, well, you need to talk to your hr. You need to find out who's your dental insurance, or We can't file, or we can't see you, or whatever.The thing that they're saying is, when really if you would just type that number into Delta or do a employer search on your, practice management software, they all have it, right? The the answer is right there in front of us. So if we put in a little bit of effort for that patient is what happens is it kind of clears out all of the backend side of things.You're not having to follow up with that patient, make sure they did call back, then verify the benefits, and then send the claim. making that effort for the patient coming up with an. and then your backend process is cleared. So in this case, the patient, he did find out who his insurance was through and he was just saying, oh, I just have a member id.I don't have a card. Is that okay? I said, yes, we can help. I messaged him back. I just said, I'll just text you back and make sure everything's good. And he said, wow. Thank you so much. Your staff is awesome. I am so happy because this was such a stressful morning when I didn't have the insurance and I was trying to find the information.So, as we know, dental insurance doesn't make things easy for us either. They don't make it for the patients easy as well. So I think that's an. Major area where the staff members are always more well-versed than the patients that you really can help them. And that kind of thing goes a long way. Um, so if we approach talking to our patients with an attitude of servitude rather than entitlement, you should have brought me that card.That was your responsibility. You knew you were coming for an appointment, whatever their reasoning may be. If we approach it with an attitude of how can I help? , then that patient obviously is going to have a better experience. So the next one that I see is cohesiveness. And this kind of plays into the other ones as well, um, into consistency.But the patients will ask the same question multiple times. We all know that. So they're going to ask the same question when they call and talk to the front desk as they may ask the clinician when they sit down for their appointment. So is that answer always the. or are we contradicting each other within that answer?So if one staff member answers this question and. another answers it differently. Um, it can often turn into a he said, she said situation, right? And then depending on your office culture, depends on how that's gonna play out. Are you gonna start having staff members throw each other under the bus or, um, what's that gonna look like?Are you gonna just always speak? Calling saying, oh, well, we have to get our office manager involved and they can figure it out. Um, so what does that look like? Is there a cohesive feel in the office? and is there a positive. Office culture on how the staff are interacting with each other as well as the patients, how the doctors are interacting with the staff and the patients.Is there a cohesive kind of culture that the patients then know to come and expect and can be true at your office? . so if you really have all of these three things dialed in, your patients will start to trust you because they'll have no reason not to. Right? Um, so then I think there's one last piece that if you add in, it just takes your office to the next level.And that is the piece of connection and care. So you have trust without this, but then when you add it in, you really start to get those loyal patients that you then have no problems, retain. . when you think about that, there's really a lot that you can do with it and you can really cater it to your office and the core cultures that your office has to offer.Um, but the first thing is make it each visit personalized. And it, it sounds silly to say out loud, but I'll tell you the number of offices that I walk into and hear the front desk speak to the patients and. Hi, what's your name? Is Unreal. So there's no better way to make a patient feel like a number than saying, hi, what's your name?So when you, again, look at your practice management software, they all have a place for a patient photo. So your check-in person, your greeting person, . patients typically come in on the hour, half an hour, somewhat staggered, but there's no reason that even if you have 15 patients coming in on the hour, they can't look at those patients and use some sort of deductive reasoning to see their name.Or I don't even care if the patient sits down in the waiting room after they've greeted them, and then they figure out whose name it is and check them in. Right. So there's really. To me, no excuse for that. And there's a number of strategies that you can use on that as well. But that is the first.Point. typically in the patient experience when they're coming into the office that you really wanna set the stage because you have been expecting them, right? If they canceled their appointment, you would've been mad at them, so now they're here, so be happy with them, right? So if we look at it like that, um, I think it starts to change, but, uh, it's also knowing how to speak to your patients, right?So anytime you're asking your patients, Do something. Obviously you're going to have those certain protocols that you have in place and anytime you're asking the patient to do something, they may not want to say. You only schedule your um, major procedures in the morning. . So add in the value of why that's important, not for you, for the patient, and then talk to them in that way.So say, Michael, uh, I know that you prefer later in the afternoon, but for this procedure, the doctor does it first thing in the morning. We don't double book at this time so you can have his full attention and we can get you in out here as soon as possible. Well, now you understand why that's necessary before you just understand that that doesn't work for your.right? So it's knowing how to add the value to the patient with what your. asking them to do. and then there's a lot that you can do to make the experience personal. Obviously adding in your chart notes, something that you spoke about the last time, and then following up on it the next time, that makes the patient feel that you do remember them.Um, and usually if you have the chart notes down, you can kind of trigger the memory on that. Um, one that I see a lot too is, uh, and I think this is very important for the. Is to prep the doctors that day with larger practices. Like, Hey, you, you have done an exam on this patient before You just met them one time.They're a little overdue, so it was eight months ago, so I'm not sure if you're going to remember them, but don't go in and reintroduce yourself. Right? Nothing worse than that. So, , make them aware, of the patients that they're not meeting . And the best way to do that again, is to have those structures and protocol in place, but then have that connection point and reference it from last time.So then once you kind of, and, and all of these things are harder to do of course, if you don't have your systems and protocol in place. But once you do, then you can really start to. Personalize it. You can do a lot of it with automation as well. Um, you're gonna put a personal touch on it, but even in your software, if you are talking to patients and they're expecting a baby, or they're getting married or graduating or retirement, there's a lot that you can do with that in the form of cards, emails following up the next time, and really just kind of connecting with that patient on the level of, Hey, well, Only, you know, we're really relationship in this way, but we really do care for you.Um, so I think that is major. And again, even if you approach contacting patients when they're overdue or due for treatment in a way of care, , and this is a team effort, and you relate it back to their chart notes. While I see the last time that you came in, doctor was concerned about this area, so he asked me to give you a call to follow up on that because we, we wanted to make sure we got that taken care of for you.So I think it's really about being intentional in the way you do things and realizing that. Um, it's a team effort. It's all going together. You need to be keeping good notes. You need to be referencing each other's notes, and you need to be follow up in that way, even stating, Hey, no, you canceled your appointment cuz you were sick or you feeling better?How's it going? Can we get you scheduled back in? referencing all those notes is it's just going to make the patient feel like they're not a number. they really. Care. So I think that is really key as well, on, um, retaining the patients. And then of course, if you do have a patient that decides to leave, make sure that you, you make them aware that you will miss them, right?Mm-hmm. so. And then a letter that you're saying, Hey, thank you for time with us. If anything in your future were to change, we would always love to have you back and extend that invitation and open the door. So if they were not happy with their new office, they can come back to your office, um, but without feeling embarrassed or, or like they shouldn't have left in the first place.Michael: Yeah. No, that's wonderful. if you could real quick, let us know, would this be really helpful in the morning huddles or like in a team meeting to make sure, like, let's make sure we're all cohesive here with, with our patients. Christa: Yeah, definitely. Um, you know, go over certain points in the morning huddles.There's a lot that you can do. And again, it's a team effort and it's just about being intentional. you may have a patient coming in and their spouse hasn't been in, in quite some time. Well, it's okay, you know, make sure you're not breaking any HIPAA laws obviously, but ask about that. and say their spouse is gonna go home and say, Hey, I was just at the dentist's office and they were asking about you because you, you haven't made an appointment in a while.So there's a lot that you can do internally too to kind of get those patients back on the books. But the morning huddle is the perfect place to kind of, um, prep for this, or even if, if a patient had a rough appointment the last time to really make sure that you make this experience. better, So be aware of those things and then if you do have a patient that has a long wait time or something, um, figure out a way that you can kind of remedy it so they can get back to that consistent experience and realize that that one time was the outlier.Michael: Awesome. Krista, I appreciate your time and if anyone has further questions, you can definitely find her in the Dental Marketer Society Facebook group or where can they reach out to you Christa: directly? Yeah, they can email me at info krista ness llc dot. Michael: Awesome. So guys, that's gonna be in the show notes below, so definitely reach out to her.Krista, thank you for being with me on this Monday morning marketing episode. Christa: Thanks, Michael.

When it comes to the issue of gender, how do you talk to your young children? How do you push back against the tide of wokeness and indoctrination going on in public schools? Bethany Bomberger asserts that, "We as Christians don't have the luxury of being silent." She and husband Ryan have made it easier for Christian parents to reinforce their beliefs about what it means to be male or female. Their new book, "She Is She", is an illustrated children's book tackling the difficult subject of gender, in a simple and direct way. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast, the Bombergers talks about how the book shows what the culture has taught for centuries about gender, what the Bible says about gender, and also what science says about gender, as it constantly reinforces biblical truths. The Bombergers are the creators of the Radiance Foundation, a faith-based pro-life organization working to educate the culture on life shaping issues. The conflict over gender has become one of the most pressing they've had to address. They've spent a lot of time in School Board meetings in Loudoun Country, Virginia, one of countless school districts in the country that see it their duty to hide a student's gender status from parents. Bethany says, "We don't have the luxury of just being bulldozed by an industry that is targeting our kids at younger and younger ages." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Brothers, welcome to the final lesson of our Simplicity series as I offer you some simple ways in which you can work with your time. Let's begin by remembering that time is merely the vehicle through which we experience all energies, including the energies of money and food that we previously explored. We cannot control time. Instead, we must allow ourselves to be lost in time to enjoy the freedom of living in the here and now. As I've mentioned before, brothers, I am a Master Mason. And one of the best demarcations of time can be found in the Masonic 24-inch gauge. This is the process of separating the 24-hour day into three equal parts of 8 hours. That means 8 hours for service (to God, community, etc.), 8 hours for usual avocations, and 8 hours for refreshment and sleep. The problem here, dear brother, is that the lines between these too often become blurred. So, to help bring you back to clarity, it would be wise to set a calendar. This means plotting your day so that every single hour is accounted for. Time is the most precious thing we have on this earth so not a second of it should be wasted. And when you begin this practice of cognitive mastery, brothers, you will find that you actually have more time than you bargained for. Just be sure to honor your calendar, and if you need a bit of help in this regard, remember to pause. Pause, reflect, experience, be. Taking moments out of your day to just stop, relax, breathe, and exist will help you regain clarity of purpose and help you realign with how you've chosen to spend your day according to your calendar. Brothers, by stripping everything away, even time itself, you'll be able to revel in the full glory of the internal light that burns within you as you experience every moment for exactly what it is. And as you keep living in the here and now, continue to elevate your alpha.

Rabeinu gives us more advice and encouragement about hitbodedut. He also explains that the main way to recite Tikkun hatzot is to recite it as if it's happening right now, in the present moment! This allows a person to truly awaken his heart with an arousal and longing for G-d, and enables him to express everything on his heart. We must also recite the tehillim by finding ourselves in every single chapter. The entire Tehillim was written about the war between a person and the evil inclination, and with ease, a person can find each and every chapter applicable to himself wherever he is!Rabeinu also envied those simple upright people who recited the extra prayers, tehillim, and supplications in the large prayer books.

In this podcast, I discuss the importance of saying "no" and the importance of simplicity in business. I share my own struggle with saying no and how I have seen clients struggle with the feeling of  being overwhelmed despite their success in their businesses. I emphasize the need for strategic management and ownership status where I look into the future and create a business that can sustain itself. I also talk about the "Holy Trinity" of serving myself, my family, and then others. I explain that doing something that does not serve me will not allow me to serve others and my legacy effectively. As a bonus I am including a free download of our Mission Statement and Core Values worksheet. We have helped clients generate immediate 6 figure revenue increases and this is the form that starts that process.    As always I appreciate your support.

Time is an incredibly vast topic and an unparalleled mystery. And today, brothers, we're going to dive deep into life's great illusion. But first, you'd do well to remember that everything that exists is a thought. We manifest everything through our minds first, and that is why we cannot separate ourselves from thought.    Now, time moves horizontally in our minds through fear. That is our linear understanding of time, which ultimately leads to our end, to death. This is the Great Fear, this is what we spend our entire lives running away from. We create the Great Illusion that time will never run out as a coping mechanism for our fear. But time always ends, brothers. And that is why every religion has its own story about what happens after death because to free ourselves from the fear of death is to liberate ourselves from all fear. When we process time with love, we do it vertically in our hearts. This is how we can be present in every moment and live a life without fear. And brothers, presence is where true power lives. There is no fear when we are living in our experience; there is no fear when the movement comes from within. Brothers, here's something that might sweep you off your feet: nothing is ever really occurring. Everything we experience is a fabrication of our minds leading us away from our fear of death. This is the cosmic joke. There is no progress or growth or evolution. Legacy is an illusion. Death is an illusion. But through celebration, we can be truly awakened and live fluid, playful, unpredictable lives without fear. Until next time brothers, elevate your alpha.

In this That Projector Life episode, I'm exploring the deceptive simplicity of being a Self-Projected Projector. It's taken me 4 or 5 years to finally realize and fully understand the nuances that exist in being a Self-Projected Projector (a.k.a. SPP). But when I finally grasped the depth in my design, it hit home hard. And that's what I'm talking about in this episode.  We'll revisit the Self-Projected authority, what it looks like in the BodyGraph, and how it works. But then we'll go off the rails a little and talk about being an SPP out in the world. Because that's where my true ah-ha came in. As an SPP, I have to be myself in the world. I have to move through the world as myself. That's crucial to me.  And I know that that's true for everyone, but for an SPP, the Identity and G Center hit hard - sometimes it's one of the only centers we have defined. So I explore my realizations that SPPs can have a deep and profound impact on the world simply through being ourselves. I also offer some reflection questions for my fellow SPPs.  While this episode may seem like me rambling about myself, I hope that it's helpful for other SPPs who are struggling with this authority and feel like they don't have anything to offer. And I also hope that this episode will help everyone else who isn't an SPP understand us just a little better.    Episode Links Learn about invitations, recognition, and how to work with both in Attract Epic Invitations.

We all know that there are red flags to watch for when signing clients, but sometimes we miss those red flags until after we start working with them because we're blinded by landing a new client.In today's episode of Serve Scale Soar®,  I'm breaking down what red flags you should be looking for before actually taking on a client. I have seen this so many times with the people in my membership. They take on a client that quickly became very problematic. They weren't able to get the results that they wanted and they ended up very unhappy. When we looked back at the beginning, there were usually red flags right from the start that they didn't recognize at the time. So in this episode, I'm sharing 9 red flags that you can look for before you take on a client. Trust me, it is so much easier to say no to a client than trying to deal or fire them after you take them on. If you're ready to find the warning signs of a red flag-type client, then make sure to tune in! Find the full show notes at www.brandimowles.com/183Additional Resources:Ready to scale to consistent 10k months without growing a team, hiring contractors, or creating a course?

Today's guest, Robbie Bent, and I hit it off right away – kindred spirits, you might say. He's the CEO and co-founder of Othership, which is building a global community to solve the loneliness epidemic, operating the first emotional training classes in North America through a combination of beautiful social spaces, saunas, ice baths, and the leading breathwork mobile app.  I am a big fan of the app and will absolutely be attending the workshop tour's next visit to Austin.
