About the book "Clinic Directors Who Keep Making Money Know This: High-Profit Management for Out-of-Pocket Clinics"

The out-of-pocket medical care market has been rapidly expanding in recent years. However, with a surge in market entrants, many clinics face challenges such as "attracting patients but not making a profit" or "getting new patients but failing to retain them."

Shotaro Uematsu, who has supported the management improvement of over 500 clinics, will reveal for the first time his management philosophy, "Operational Excellence," for surviving and continuing to profit in the fiercely competitive out-of-pocket medical care industry. This book comprehensively explains highly reproducible know-how for simultaneously improving profit margins and customer satisfaction through the digitalization (DX) of "five back-office operations": appointments, customer information, payments, inventory, and staff management, with practical examples.

This is a bible to guide busy clinic directors, often overwhelmed by daily tasks, from being "blue-collar workers in white coats" to becoming smart "true managers" based on data.
