from Medical Money Matters with Jill Arena · host Jill Arena

Send us Fan MailThere are few moments in a growing medical practice that feel more uncomfortable than this one.You look around and realize that something isn’t working the way it used to. Day-to-day operations feel harder. Decisions seem slower. Issues keep landing back on the physicians’ desks. And yet, the person at the center of it all—the office manager—has been loyal, hardworking, and instrumental in getting the practice to where it is today.This is where leadership and loyalty collide.Today, we’re talking about a common growing pain in medical practices: when a good office manager isn’t enough anymore. Not because they failed. Not because they didn’t care. But because the practice changed—and the role didn’t.There’s a phrase that comes up again and again in these situations: what got you here won’t get you there. And nowhere is that more true than in practice management.Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop! Visit Jill’s company, Health e Practices’ website: https://healtheps.com/ Subscribe to our newsletter, Health e Connections: https://share.hsforms.com/1FMup6xLPSpeA8hB77caYQwd32sx?hsCtaAttrib=171926995377 Want more formal learning?
