As
physician incomes decline, physicians are looking to cash based
services to boost their bottom lines.
Las
Vegas, Nevada, USA - May 18, 2012 -- Physician income has
declined since 2010, according to the recent Medscape’s Physician
Compensation Survey Report: 2012 Results. Even among the top earning
specialties (radiologists, orthopedic surgeons, cardiologists and
anesthesiologists) incomes declined, and the bottom earning
specialties (pediatrics, family medicine, and internal medicine) saw
no gains.
Also,
proposed changes in healthcare reform worry physicians, and fifty-two
percent of physicians believe that incomes will be further negatively
affected under proposed initiatives.
So,
to boost their bottom lines, many physicians are adding cash-based
services, like botox, to their healthcare businesses. From lasers to
hCG, physicians who attend the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium
(http://www.aestheticmedicinesymposium.com)
receive the training they need to add $100,000+ a year in
non-insurance based revenue to an existing practice.
To
insulate a practice from any looming changes in healthcare
compensation, physicians need to incorporate these key fundamentals,
as taught at the IAPAM's Aesthetic Medicine Symposium:
• Understanding
the latest trends in aesthetic medicine and how to use them to one's
advantage;
• How
to develop a successful business plan including steps on how to
integrated medical aesthetics procedures into a practice or build a
patient base;
• How
to perform aesthetic patient consultations;
• How
to add the most profitable cosmetic injectable procedures, including:
Botox ®, Dysport ® and dermal fillers (i.e. Juvederm ®, Restylane
®, and Perlane ®), chemical peels, and physician directed skin
care;
• Extensive,
physician-lead, hands-on training in Botulinum Toxin Type A (i.e.
Botox®), IPL / laser technology, and medical microdermabrasion; and
• How
to maximize profits by offering the most profitable aesthetic
medicine procedures like physician strength chemical peels, tailored
to meet a specific clinic's patient profiles.
