Expanding Practice

When you decided to hire your last new provider, how soon after the ink on the contract was dry did he start seeing patients?

If you’re running a busy practice, chances are that there wasn’t much time to waste. In fact, in our experience, we’ve seen that the average time between hiring a physician and his first day on the job is usually 1 month or less – usually, just enough time to take a few weeks’ vacation before starting a new job, or relocating from out of state.

Fact:

The least amount of time required to completely credential a provider with the various list of payors in any given area is 2 months – and that’s if the provider is already enrolled in those insurances and you only need to “link” your new Tax ID. If you’re recruiting a provider from out-of-state, or he just graduated from medical school, the whole credentialing process can take upwards of 6 months! That requires a lot of forward-thinking on the part of the hiring practice.
