Practice economics: what your phones are worth

The phone is still where many visits begin, so how your clinic answers it shows up in the schedule and in revenue. The articles in this topic help owners and managers put numbers on it honestly. They explain how to estimate what missed calls cost, with every assumption visible and changeable, what that estimate leaves out, how phone services and AI assistants bill, how to plan front-desk capacity against call volume, and how to measure the return on any change you make over a fair period. Start with what your phones are worth, or put your own numbers into the missed-call calculator. Results are always framed as estimates based on your inputs, never as promises.
