“I highly recommend Mary Pat Whaley’s book: “The Smart Manager’s Guide to Collecting at Checkout” to medical practices exploring ways in which to improve collections. Due to monthly receipts that are continuing to decrease, this book is extremely helpful for existing practices that wish to take a more proactive stand in the restructuring of their collection policy. It is also a great tool for start up practices. In this book, the step by step processes are laid out for the practice, increasing the likelihood of physician and employee buy-in. By including the staff in brainstorming sessions and setting goals as described in the book, everyone becomes an important player in the process.
Questions that would be asked by the practice, physicians and patients are already addressed along with the suggested response, which is extremely helpful. Mary Pat, thank you for making this very important guide available at our fingertips. I eagerly recommend this book.”
