Subject: Before you buy anything, ask these 3 questions

Published about 1 month ago • 1 min read

Hey Reader,

Short and Sweet this week. Last week I asked you to name the single biggest drain on your time or revenue right now. If you were looking for solutions, The Exhibit Hall and all of the possible solutions at NATCON last week was overwhelming. Many of you know that you are overworked, understaffed and could be doing better and helping more patients, but you don't know where to start.

The responses came in fast. And while the specifics varied — no-shows, billing denials, documentation time — almost every reply had the same thing underneath it: a process problem being treated like a technology problem.

So before you evaluate a single new tool, here are the three questions I'd want any practice to answer first:

1. Is this actually broken, or just uncomfortable? Some friction is just part of the work. Not everything that's annoying needs to be automated.

2. If you fixed this completely, what changes? If the answer is vague, the problem isn't defined enough yet. Specificity is what makes solutions stick.

3. Could you solve 80% of this with what you already have? Most platforms are underused. Before adding a new one, find out what your current tools actually do.

That's it. Three questions. They won't give you an answer — but they'll stop you from buying the wrong one.

If you want to work through them together, let's find a time below.

Hi Reader Most HIPAA guidance for small practices falls into one of two buckets: too vague to act on, or so dense you give up halfway through. The reality is that 80% of the risk for a solo or small-group practice comes from a handful of things, all of which are fixable in an afternoon. The remaining 20% is what consultants like me get paid to handle. Today is about the 80%. Five things you can do this week that move you from "probably exposed" to "actually defensible." 1. Make every BAA...

Hi Reader Last week I walked through the hidden costs of running your practice on tools that weren't built for healthcare — compliance gaps, tech failures, after-hours admin, the whole picture. A few of you wrote back. The common thread: I know something needs to change. I just don't know where to start. That's exactly what I want to talk about today. Most clinicians aren't bad at tech. They're just doing the wrong job. You trained to provide care. Somewhere along the way you also became your...

Hey Reader, Here's something almost every small practice gets wrong: They price out a Telehealth visit by what they can see. Their time. The platform fee. Maybe add a little for overhead. What they don't price is the cost of running healthcare on tools that were never built for it. That cost is real. It's steady. And for most solo and small-group practices, it's meaningfully larger than the line items already on the books. The DIY stack isn't free. It just bills you in a different currency....
