Effective Office
Efficiency is a key issue in every orthopedic office. The Effective Office Program helps streamline the patient’s office experience by engaging them in an educational experience during waiting periods and exam times. Patients are encouraged to read brochures, watch videos, and browse wall hangings that answer many common questions about arthritis and its treatments. An educated patient tends to have a better understanding of arthritis and its related treatments.
The many practice enhancement materials found in the Effective Office Program effectively and consistently educate patients in the office environment, which generally results in improved comprehension and increased satisfaction.
