Recently, we had the bright idea to take a look at some of our UC Dashboard winners to learn if there were any patterns that we could identify as Best Practices in order to share with everyone else. Our first stab was more fruitful than I expected.
Ever find a dollar bill in your pocket? Bonus! Today's episode is just like that...I was searching through my pile of data files looking for something when I stumbled upon an analysis I put together last year but forgot to share: does appointment d...
A little over a week ago I gave my standard "Pediatric Benchmarks" talk (newly updated with some fascinating clinical benchmarks!) and I found myself summarizing the two or three most important measures I use when consulting for practices. I suppose...
PCC's A1 Coding Resource, Jan, shared with me some interesting data today. She has kept track of her chart audits dating back to 2008 and wondered what the results looked like. The E&M results are fascinating.

Last week, there was discussion on the SOAPM list about HPV coverage rates and the factors that affect it. There is some consensus that the importance of this vaccine is more difficult to communicate to parents as many of them (illogically) relate i...
Yes, I am asking you to complete another survey. But it's vital and fast - and needs to be done this weekend! And the topic is especially timely. Our last survey here got picked up by the national media. Let's see what we can do here to change VF...
I had a great time speaking to Drs. Bravo and Rogu on their growing podcast, The Pediatric Lounge, to discuss the state of independent pediatricians and the use of data in a pediatric practice.

What they are doing takes a tremendous amount of work and their guest list is amazing (well, besides me). They turned our conversation into back-to-back episodes (32 and 33), "Independent Pediatric Practice 2022" and "Data Data Data and Managing a Pediatric Office." If you prefer video, you catch up on their YouTube channel.
