Your Chiropractic Practice Deserves a Top-Tier Patient Growth Solution: How to Choose the Best One for You


When thinking about which patient growth solution to go for, anyone’s first thought is to choose the one built specifically for what your specialty is. You’re a chiropractor? You’re going to go for a system for health and wellness practitioners. However, what if I said there was a platform that could do everything the specialized ones do, and it does it even better? I think you would reconsider your decision.
I’m going to present two patient management platforms to you just to mull over.
The first one is called Jane. Jane offers a practice management platform primarily aimed at health and wellness practitioners. The second is called Growth Power Suite (GPS). GPS provides a more general-purpose business management platform that is highly customizable and can be used by a broad range of industries…including your chiropractic practice.
When deciding between Jane and GPS for a chiropractic practice, both platforms offer valuable assets, but each has its strengths depending on your specific needs. We believe, though, that GPS is a better option than Jane for chiropractors.
I’ll explain why a little later on, but for now, let’s discuss the two systems and what they are generally about.
Jane offers a practice management platform primarily aimed at health and wellness practitioners. The platform is designed with features that support booking, billing, charting, and telehealth services, which are essential for running a clinical business.
– Scheduling and Booking: Jane provides an intuitive online booking system that allows patients to book appointments directly from your website. It also includes automated reminders and waitlist management.
– Billing and Invoicing: Jane handles all aspects of billing, including insurance claims, direct billing, and payment processing, making it easy to manage finances.
– Patient Records and Charting: The platform offers secure, customizable charting options, with the ability to attach files and images, ensuring that patient records are comprehensive and easily accessible.
– Telehealth: Integrated telehealth services are available, allowing practitioners to conduct virtual appointments with patients.
– Reporting and Analytics: Jane provides reporting tools to track key metrics such as revenue, appointment counts, and patient retention.
Growth Power Suite, on the other hand, provides a more general-purpose business management and Client Growth Platform that is highly customizable and aimed at a broader range of industries, including small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), nonprofits, and membership-based organizations.
– CRM and Sales Automation: GPS includes a dynamic CRM system with sales pipeline management, automation workflows, and communication tools that handle emails, SMS, calls, and social media interactions.
– Appointment and Member Management: The platform offers appointment scheduling and member management tools, making it suitable for organizations with membership models or patient appointments.
– Business Management: GPS includes features for managing proposals, contracts, and commercial real estate listings, catering to industries with complex business needs.
– Customizable Workflows: The platform is designed to be highly customizable, allowing businesses to tailor the workflow automation to their specific processes.
– Customer Portal: GPS provides a customer portal where patients can access services, track their interactions, and manage their accounts.
Now that we know the deal with these two companies, let’s talk about what each of them would bring to the table for a chiropractic practice.
Jane would be beneficial for chiropractors due to several key features specifically designed for healthcare professionals. Here’s how it can support a chiropractic practice.
1. Online Booking and Scheduling: Jane offers a user-friendly online booking system that allows patients to schedule their appointments directly from the chiropractor’s website or a custom booking link. This feature helps reduce administrative tasks and makes it convenient for patients to book or manage their appointments.
2. Electronic Charting: Jane’s electronic medical records (EMR) system is tailored to suit the needs of chiropractors. It includes customizable charting templates, making it easy to document patient visits, track progress, and create detailed treatment plans. The EMR system is also designed to comply with healthcare regulations, ensuring patient data is secure.
3. Integrated Billing and Insurance Management: Jane simplifies billing by integrating it directly with patient appointments and treatment plans. Chiropractors can create invoices, manage insurance claims and process payments all within the same platform. This integration helps reduce errors and speeds up the billing process.
4. Telehealth Capabilities: For chiropractors offering virtual consultations or follow-up sessions, Jane provides telehealth features. This allows practitioners to conduct secure video appointments, expanding access to care for patients who may not be able to visit the clinic in person.
5. Patient Communication Tools: Jane includes built-in communication tools that enable chiropractors to send appointment reminders, follow-up emails, and other patient communications. This helps maintain patient engagement and reduces no-shows.
6. Reporting and Analytics: Jane offers reporting tools that provide insights into the practice’s performance. Chiropractors can track revenue, appointment trends, patient demographics, and other key metrics to make informed decisions about their practice.
7. User Experience and Support: Jane is known for its intuitive interface, making it easy for both practitioners and patients to use. Additionally, Jane offers excellent customer support, which is crucial for resolving any issues quickly.
8. Scalability and Customization: As the practice grows, Jane can scale with it. The platform is customizable to fit the specific needs of the chiropractic practice, whether it’s adjusting intake forms, setting up different types of appointments, or managing multiple practitioners.
Growth Power Suite also offers several features that align with the needs of chiropractic practices, including:
1. Appointment Management: GPS provides robust scheduling and appointment management tools. Chiropractors can efficiently manage their appointment bookings, allowing patients to schedule sessions online. Automated reminders help reduce no-shows, and the ability to manage multiple providers and rooms ensures smooth operations in a busy practice.
2. Client Relationship Management (CRM): The CRM system in GPS is highly adaptable, enabling chiropractors to manage patient records, track treatment progress, and maintain communication. This feature is crucial for building long-term relationships with patients and ensuring personalized care.
3. Customizable Workflows: Chiropractors can tailor the platform’s workflows to fit the unique processes of their practice. Whether it’s customizing intake forms, treatment plans, or follow-up schedules, the platform can adapt to the specific needs of a chiropractic practice.
4. Billing and Invoicing: Although GPS is a broad business management platform, it includes billing and invoicing features that can process payments and generate financial reports, which are essential for running a practice efficiently.
5. Member Management: For chiropractors who offer membership plans or wellness packages, GPS’s member management tools allow for easy tracking of memberships, renewals, and member-specific pricing. This is particularly useful for practices that offer ongoing wellness programs.
6. Reporting and Analytics: GPS offers reporting tools that allow chiropractors to track the performance of their practice. From financial reports to patient retention metrics, these analytics help chiropractors make data-driven decisions to improve their practices.
7. Customer Portal: The customer portal provided by Growth Power Suite gives patients access to their appointment schedules, billing information, and treatment history. This enhances patient engagement and makes it easier for them to interact with the practice.
8. Scalability: GPS is designed to scale with your business. Whether you’re a solo practitioner or managing multiple locations, the platform can grow with your practice, offering more advanced features as needed.
Overall, GPS can be a powerful tool for chiropractors looking to manage their practice more efficiently. The platform’s flexibility, combined with its expansive feature set, makes it well-suited for the dynamic needs of a chiropractic practice, from appointment scheduling and patient management to billing and reporting.
Clearly, both options are pretty solid for management platforms for your practice. So, what sets GPS above? Let’s talk pricing. Jane initially gives you a pretty low price for their plans. However, what you don’t see is all the hidden fees. First of all, their “low price” that they offer is per practitioner. For GPS, it’s one price per business, no matter how many people are using it. In most management platforms, including Jane, everything costs more money. People on the account, appointments, branding, custom settings, even SMS messaging costs extra. There are all kinds of hidden fees they don’t tell you about. With GPS, everything is given to you up front. Unlimited full access users, dashboards, appointment reminders, SMS marketing, workflows, the list goes on and on. There are no extra fees for something like just having an extra user on the account.
GPS also boasts two-way communication. Not all management platforms have this option. With Jane, you can communicate with your patients, sure, but your patients cannot communicate with you. GPS gives your patients the option to respond to your correspondence, making it feel like a healthy relationship instead of a one-sided bombardment of messages that they can’t respond to.
Those are just two things that set GPS above and beyond the rest.
When trying to find a management platform that will grow your patient base to use for your chiropractic practice, there are so many options out there. You will see a lot specially designed for healthcare providers. However, I think it would be hard to find one that could take care of your practice as well as GPS can. These other platforms are comparable, sure, but they come with hidden fees, limitations, and inconveniences. GPS, on the other hand, offers you the same features, as well as some extra ones, in a more affordable, easier to use, more user friendly, all-inclusive setting that would be beneficial to any business.
