  • Episode 103: Is Your Cyber Incident Response Plan Up to Snuff?
    Nov 12 2024

    Today, we’re diving into a critical topic that’s only becoming more urgent as cyber threats grow: Is Your Cyber Incident Response Plan Up to Snuff?

    Now, if you’re a physician running or managing a practice, you might think cybersecurity isn’t something you need to worry about daily. Think back to March of 2024, which saw the Change Healthcare Cyberattack. You may be thinking, “Change is a large organization, and I don’t have to worry as much as they do.” But in today’s environment, all healthcare practices are prime targets for cyberattacks, and a lack of preparation can have devastating consequences. In fact, according to recent studies, the healthcare sector has one of the highest rates of cyberattacks among all industries, with massive financial and reputational impacts following even a single breach.

    So today, we’re going to cover the essentials of creating a solid Cyber Incident Response Plan—or CIRP for short—and why every practice, from small solo operations to large multi-physician groups, needs a plan in place. We’ll talk about the unique vulnerabilities that come with running a healthcare practice, especially as it grows, and the serious fallout that can follow a cyber incident. I’ll also offer some guidance on building a strong cybersecurity policy and show you how to protect your practice, your patients, and ultimately, your reputation.

  • Episode 102: Is Your Office Manager Living the Peter Principle?
    Nov 5 2024

    Today, we're diving into a topic that might be affecting your practice more than you realize: Is Your Office Manager Living the Peter Principle? Now, you might be wondering—what is the Peter Principle? And how could it apply to my medical practice? Let’s break it down.

    The Peter Principle is a concept first described by Dr. Laurence J. Peter in his 1969 book, The Peter Principle: Why Things Always Go Wrong. It states that employees in a hierarchy tend to rise to their "level of incompetence." In other words, they get promoted based on their performance in their current role until they reach a position where they’re no longer effective.

    In the context of a medical practice, this principle can have significant repercussions. Picture your Office Manager, someone who has been with your practice for years. They’ve handled scheduling, billing, and HR—wearing multiple hats as your practice grew from just a couple of physicians to a bustling team. But as the demands increased, their skill set may not have evolved as quickly. Suddenly, they’re managing tasks beyond their capabilities, struggling with strategic planning, advanced budgeting, or navigating complex regulations. That's the Peter Principle at play.
