ExecTech’s Major Program

The ExecTech program is a one-year personalized package of services. The program is all-inclusive, meaning all of your services are included for one fee. You are not charged by the hour nor asked to pay for extra services or products during the year.

Your ExecTech program is customized to fit your needs and wants. No cookie-cutter programs at ExecTech! Your proposal will outline which of these services will be included.

1. In-Office Consultation MeetingsConsulting Meeting

Your practice-management consultant travels to your location for meetings that last 2 to 5 hours. In some cases, your consultant may spend all day in your office to address your biggest issues and help you start implementing solutions.

Meeting with you in your office gives your consultant the opportunity to look at your facility, review your systems and watch you and your staff in action. Your consultant can meet with your spouse, your office manager and staff, with or without you. He or she can provide assistance and training in your staff meetings as well as find the underlying causes of your biggest problems.

Nothing is more effective than direct observation and interaction with your practice to provide you with the most help and the best advice possible.

2. Consulting Meetings at ExecTech

Many clients find they prefer meeting at ExecTech as it gives them a different perspective in a spacious, upscale location. These practice owners work on their practices and make their plans, without distractions. ExecTech consultants like having all ExecTech resources available for a comfortable, stress-free meeting.

You and your consultant have complete flexibility to schedule meetings in whatever way gives you the results you expect from your program. For example, one client preferred to meet for 1-2 hours each Monday at ExecTech. During the meetings, his consultant trained him on patient-management and staff-management skills and then helped him work out his plans for that week. As a result, his practice more than doubled during that year.

3. Telephone ConsultingCoaching Client

You and your consultant discuss your progress by telephone as scheduled and as needed. During that call, you and your consultant will review your statistics, your current issues and any difficulties you are facing with implementation of your solutions.

If your office is not close to an ExecTech office, you will use telephone consulting more intensively. Your consultant may also conference in your spouse, staff or associates to address issues or implement solutions.

At the start of the program, the calls are generally longer, up to 2-3 hours, as you may have many issues to discuss. However, as you start making steady progress and your statistics start to rise, your calls will take less time. “OK, great! Let’s stick to the plan, and watch the numbers, and we’ll be right on target to reach our objectives.”

4. Mini-Programs

As a result of each consulting meeting, you and your consultant will work out a mini-program, or a list of action steps for you to take. These steps are designed to help you create the most amount of improvement with the time you have available. If you complete your mini-programs, you will get all of the benefits and results promised in your proposal.

You must be 100% willing to complete each action step in your mini-program and give them your highest priority. If you are not willing or able to complete an action step, it will not be included in your mini-program.

You and your consultant will continue to work together until you create a mini-program that suits you best.

16. Online Job Application AccountA-Performer

As an ExecTech client, you receive an account to use ExecTech’s OnlineJobAp system.

As you may know, all large companies and governments require candidates to fill out an application on the internet before they are granted an interview. Applicants like this approach as they can complete their applications, at their convenience, with no rush. They can gather their job history information, carefully read the legal notices and ensure their answers are accurate before submitting the application. They can also attach their resumes and photos.

You will also like ExecTech’s online system as you can read the typed answers more easily than hand-written answers, quickly screen out unqualified applicants and only contact the gems for interviews.

In addition to the standard job application questions, applicants answer 10 pre-interview questions to help you spot potential A-Performers within seconds.

For more details, go to exectechweb.com/onlinejobap.

17. Online Client Library

As an ExecTech client, you will have access to dozens of files you can download and use in your practice. The online client library includes the newest ExecTech guidelines, not found in the Management Tools binder.
The online client library also includes dozens of forms and sample letters in Word Doc. You can download, save and customize the forms as you wish.

For example, a sample New Patient form, Missed Appointment Log, Job Application, Informed Refusal, Patient Testimonial and Photo Permission form and so on. The collections sample letters includes 20 powerful letters you can use to fight payment reductions and denials from insurance companies and managed-care plans.

18. Statistical ManagementProfit Graph

An essential part of your ExecTech consulting is to carefully track your statistical changes. We do this with a weekly report line from your office to your consultant. As a minimum, your consultant will need your weekly new patients, production and collections.

Additional statistics may be needed on a temporary or permanent basis, such as production breakdowns of individual providers, over-the-counter collections, numbers of new patient from individual sources like referrals or web presence, etc..

Your consultant can then put your stats on a graph to see the correlations. For example, a drop in new patients causes a drop in production and collections within a few weeks.

The trend of your statistics acts as a planning guide. For example, when a statistic is rising, you find and strengthen the causes of the rise; you do not make big changes. However, when a statistic is dropping, you must make changes to quickly reverse the downtrend.More Profit Less Stress

As an ExecTech client, you will learn how to use this incredible management tool to stay in control of your practice.

ExecTech Fees

Before determining the program fee, you and an ExecTech consultant meet for a three-hour Practice Analysis. At the end of the meeting, you and the consultant will have a good idea if we will have a successful client-consultant relationship. If so, we schedule a second meeting for an ExecTech program proposal.

An ExecTech proposal outlines your practice goals, statistics and problems. It lists several objectives to help you resolve your problems, boost your statistics and reach your goals. It outlines all of the services ExecTech provides in the package and the fee.

ExecTech charges a one-time fee for a full year of consulting and coaching. The fee is based on the consulting objectives, size of your practice, location of the meetings and amount of coaching your practice will receive.

Most clients recover the fee through additional profits within 3-4 months. Because ExecTech focuses on solutions that stay in place, your investment pays off every year for the rest of your career.
