Multi-mode practice: Here's what you need to know

You may not know, but it's pretty simple: if you have a mix of face-to-face, phone, and telehealth appointments, you're operating a multi-mode practice.

Multi-mode is the new "normal" for private practices

When the pandemic started months ago, health practitioners were the first to adapt and innovate to keep treating patients - without even realising it, you created an efficient and inclusive way to treat patients: the multi-mode practice.

Even when things go back to "normal", practitioners and patients have discovered a new normal for treatment, with fewer limitations and endless possibilities.

Multi-mode is good for business

Multi-mode practices are not only keeping treatment business as usual during difficult times, but they've proven to be a great business strategy.

Many practitioners are now having the opportunity to grow their practices like never before, without increasing costs with multiple locations, staff or a bigger waiting room.

Multi-mode makes healthcare better

Not to mention that multi-mode practices mean being able to make healthcare better for more people everywhere.
