Today we’re diving into a topic that separates thriving practices from those that drift — the key metrics that don’t just describe your practice, but actually predict its future.

If you’ve ever felt like your practice is reactive rather than proactive, this episode is for you. You might be tracking revenue and visit volume, but unless you’re watching the right signals — the ones that truly forecast performance — you’re flying blind. By the end of today’s show, you’ll know the 7 metrics that matter most, how they work, industry benchmarks where available, why they matter, and how often you should be reviewing them.

You’ve probably heard the phrase measure what matters. But in medical practice management, that’s easier said than done. There are hundreds of numbers you could look at — claims denials, phone calls, referral turnaround, days to bill — but some have real predictive power. We’ll go through the seven most predictive ones today, and even give you two “extra credit” metrics for when your group is ready to level up.
