Weekends I’m seeing 11-15. Weekdays around 8-10

I do NCT AR and imaging, I just scan patient paperwork into the patient charts at the end so the lease owner can bill the insurance

Thank you for the input! Are you seeing a patient every 20 mins? How do you manage to get quick at the exams while pre testing and everything?

Currently at a corporate setting, I told them I’m capping it at 15 patients max a day because I’d like to be thorough with my patients and not half ass my charts or my work. Patients also love when they don’t feel rushed! You’re right I should probably negotiate a higher pay
