Practice Management Systems are useful and streamline the everyday tasks that can quickly bog down or even overwhelm your daily practice. But while they can provide a full suite of services, there could be many reasons why you choose not to use a full fledged practice management suite. For some boutique firms, you may have very specific needs or requirements that may make some of these platforms an awkward fit. For many smaller firms and solo practitioners, these platforms may require you to pay for services and infrastructure that you may not need or may not need yet.
In this program, you will:
- Learn the core functions of practice management software, along with some common alternatives that can accomplish the same tasks; and
- Reflect on your firm's use of technology and determine what software is appropriate for your practice your time and billing practices and how they can be improved.
