20/20 Money Episode #267 – Year end planning with Bethany Fishbein, OD
December 18, 2023
Welcome to this episode of 20/20 Money! My guest on today’s show is Dr. Bethany Fishbein, CEO of The Power Practice and host of the Power Hour podcast.
On today’s episode we continue our dialogue that we started on my last appearance on the Power Hour podcast, which was around year-end planning. However, this conversation starts with the non-financial decision-making process that practice owners should be considering as they map out the direction of their practice going into the new year, specifically around the addition of treatments, therapies, and services they can provide to their patients.
Bethany shares great insights on how practice owners can start thinking about which treatment/therapies/services ODs should consider in their practice, the dangers of giving into FOMO and the bandwagon effect, how to present change to both your team as well as an associate OD you might have in the practice, and the importance of understanding the opportunity cost of these decisions. We wrap up conversation by distilling all of this down into the most important KPI (key performance indicator) that you should be tracking and reconciling a decision like this against in your practice.
