Handling Team Resistance
Manage episode 436983653 series 3560564
In this episode of the Less Insurance Dependence Podcast, Gary Takacs and Naren Arulrajah address the common issue of team resistance when transitioning to a less insurance-dependent practice. They discuss practical strategies for managing team members' fears and concerns, highlighting the importance of clear communication, ongoing training, and maintaining a patient-centered approach. Understanding that resistance is a natural human response to change, especially when job security is perceived to be at risk, the hosts emphasize that this shift doesn't mean abandoning patients but rather allows the practice to set its fees while remaining patient-friendly.
Gary and Naren stress the importance of starting with a strong "why" when explaining the transition away from PPO plans. This approach should focus on the benefits for both the team and the patients rather than solely on financial motivations. By ensuring that all team members are consistently delivering the same message to patients, confusion is minimized, and the practice's commitment to high-quality care is reinforced.
