Private
Practice 
Set Up

For specialists leaving an associate role, moving out from under a group banner or opening their first private rooms.

​

We build the practice around how you work - consulting, procedural or both - so it runs properly from the moment your first patient walks in. 

BUILT FOR YOUR TYPE OF PRACTICE

Surgical and physician practices run differently. We set each up accordingly.

For surgeons

  • Theatre list and hospital booking workflows for each private hospital you operate at

  • Informed Financial Consent templates for procedures, including assistant and anaesthetist fees

  • Arrangements with surgical assistants and anaesthetists

  • In-hospital billing set up through ECLIPSE and health fund gap arrangements

  • Pre-admission and post-operative patient communication

For physicians

  • Consulting session templates for new, review and telehealth appointments

  • Recall and review systems so patients return on schedule

  • Procedure list coordination for proceduralist physicians

  • Correspondence workflows so reports reach referring GPs promptly

  • Consultation and procedural billing configured to your item mix
