$490,000 Rise in Revenue With More Efficient Systems

Challenge
Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists, an impressive otolaryngology clinic with multiple locations, was struggling to grow their allergy division into the patient-serving, revenue-generating department its leadership team knew it had the potential to be.
Goal
With approximately 625 immunotherapy patients and a little more than $1 million in annual revenue across all locations, the practice knew it was possible to supercharge this ancillary service, but they didn’t quite know how.
Results
With more efficient systems and processes in place, Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists were able to increase revenue by $490,000 and achieve 15 minutes savings on their allergy testing time, allowing them to see an additional 406 new patients.
Identifying Areas of Opportunities
“Our process was inconsistent. We didn’t have a solid patient-retention mechanism. Between Clarity and the Audigy Medical team’s support, we have both! We finally have a process that gives us visibility into all sorts of things we weren’t aware of. The Audigy Medical team’s expertise changed everything.”
— Stefan Kuipers, PA-C, Michigan ENT & Allergy Specialists
