Healthcare consumers today prefer scheduling appointments online and having the 24/7 convenience to be able to do so. Not offering online appointment scheduling could be a missed opportunity for your practice to attract patients and boost patient satisfaction. Learn more about the data behind online appointment scheduling here.
"Across all industries, Americans typically schedule 60% of their appointments with businesses online and 33% via telephone calls. Eliciting Insights’ research data shows that the demand for self-service scheduling outpaces its availability in the healthcare market. Patients see the value in online scheduling and want providers to offer more services, more appointment times, and better functionality."

The American Academy of Pediatrics shares recommendations for pediatricians to help children with Marfan syndrome and information on how individuals with Marfan syndrome will be affected differently.
"In addition to monitoring children with Marfan for health complications that may affect the bones, heart and blood vessels, eyes, skin, lungs and other body systems, pediatricians can provide routine depression screening. Especially in adolescence, this may help identify individuals who need more support or intervention. Also, many of those affected by Marfan syndrome benefit from networking and peer relationships."

Looking to hire new employees at your pediatric practice? Even if a candidate doesn't have pediatric experience, they can still be successful employees at your practice through training if they're the right fit for your business. Here are tips on how to train non-pediatric staff.
"A good orientation is a tool that you can rely on for any new hire, but it will need a few adaptations for training staff unfamiliar with pediatrics. Providers may be familiar with working with children if they worked previously in family medicine, were a hospitalist, or at the very least, from their residency rotations. Stepping into pediatrics full-time will require a few basic lessons during orientation, which you can offer by taking a renewed look at your process."
