Welcome To The Inaugural Edition of PrivatePractice.MD!

Welcome to the inaugural edition of PrivatePractice.MD! This community of doctors and the expert advisors who help them will be your resource to running a more efficient, high-quality and more profitable private medical and healthcare practice. You’ll be a better (and happier) doctor and your patients will get the best care you can provide them.

Social networking websites for doctors and other healthcare providers are proliferating on the internet. I belong to a few of them myself and find them very valuable. PrivatePractice.MD’s focus will be a little different from those sites because this community of doctors will welcome the advice and guidance these experts can offer. There will be an exclusive “Doctors Only” area on PrivatePractice.MD where doctors can chat and exchange ideas privately, but much of the site will encourage the conversation between doctors and all the other important people who make a practice successful. PrivatePractice.MD is about the business, the logistics, and the mechanics of the heart and soul of a healthcare practice. The other sites help doctors discuss clinical issues, this site helps them learn and share best practice management practices. The end result is that everyone is happier and healthier, including your patients, your staff and you.

So please join in the conversation. Tell your colleagues about PrivatePractice. MD. Tell your lawyer, your accountant, your office manager, your medical billing staff, your life insurance agent, your financial advisor. Tell anyone and everyone who helps make your practice the success it is.
