The 2nd essential step for fewer refunds is care checkpoints.
These are your re-exams, re-Xrays, or any other objective tests you may do in chiropractic—for example, posture exams, scans, orthopedic tests, whatever tests you use.
These have two beneficial functions number one, progress with care.
#127: The 1st Step For Fewer Refunds
I don't know if you have be told this, but clients have told me that their old coach taught patients quit because they are bored.
I'm afraid I have to disagree.
I think the #1 reason patients quit is they are frustrated.
They are frustrated because there is no progression of care.

Creating a team is one of my greatest strengths and is where I have been making my most significant contribution to the profession and at the training.
There are 3 actions I have seen over the years that consistently prevent docs from creating a quality team.
#124: Don’t Do Everything Forever
- The doctor/owner does everything.
- The doctor/owner does nothing.
They both have their benefits and their costs.
