Fine-Tuning Processes Increases Efficiency and Revenue by 29%

Challenge
A university-affiliated practice in the Northwest experienced six years of flat or declining revenue. A cross-functional analysis revealed untapped potential across four dimensions of the practice.
Goal
In order to reverse the decline in revenue, Audigy Medical’s COPM-C certified consultants worked to fine-tune the practice’s existing processes among four key areas.
Results
With a more operationally efficient practice, they saw revenue increasing. From June 2017 to June 2018, hearing aid revenue increased by 29%.
