A daily standup meeting can be a highly effective way to keep your staff motivated and moving on important tasks.
This 10-minute meeting, used in a variety of workplaces, provides an opportunity for a quick check-in on the day’s priorities.
As the name implies, participants stand up—a posture that discourages long discussion. Here are ways to make the meeting work for your medical office
- Schedule the meeting at the same time and place deal. The start of the shift, after staff arrives and gets settled for work but before the office opens to patients, is one common time to schedule the regular standup meeting.
- You can use the time to review ongoing projects such as processing claims.
- You can remind your team of unfinished job from yesterday, such as loading records or x-rays to patient portals.
- You can make sure preparation has been done for certain appointments and procedures.
- And you can plan how the team can use bonus time if other tasks are caught up, perhaps on outreach calls.
