Worst, worst case, the ~15k/yr in rent, ins, and software put a dent in profits, but if each visit is min 75$, you can figure out how hard it is to break even. Upper revenue is 200k+/yr
Rent is 12,000 dollars of expenses. EMR is almost trivial.
Turns out that telling your patients to go to ER or a walk-in clinic every weekend/evening/holiday/illness/leave isn’t the best care.
And continuity of care if you retire/fall ill is rarely done well.
Multi-practitioner clinics can share an on-call schedule or evening/weekend hours, get bonuses for doing so and save money.
Also allows for flexible schedules. Want to work 3 days a week? Sure! Had a child and want to still work the occasional weekend only for a bit? Ok!
