If you’re a physician leaving residency training, you might choose to enter a solo practice. If this is the case for you, there is a lot of planning to consider for your medical office. One of the main concerns of opening a new office is gathering the necessary medical office supplies and equipment.
You may be wondering, “how are these different?” For our purposes, medical office supplies are the necessities that are perishable, consumable, or otherwise may be depleted/worn over time (including furniture). Whereas, equipment constitutes the instruments which will not ever need to be purchased again (unless they break) that are to be utilized for medical diagnostics, etc.
Let’s take a look at the first of these in our comprehensive list of the medical office supplies you should invest in for your new practice, broken down by location:
No matter which medical office supplies you decide to buy as you plan and prepare to stock your practice, it’s important to shop around and get the best prices. You may be able to find the best deals at office supply stores such as Staples or inexpensive furniture stores like Ikea. If you particularly like the supplies at the clinic you trained at or at a peer’s solo practice, ask those physicians and office managers where they bought their medical office supplies. They will appreciate the compliment as well as be able to point you towards saving some money.
Amidst the planning chaos, don’t forget to think about how your practice will handle tasks such as medical billing. Consider saving money in this area, too, by outsourcing the handling and follow-up of claims to Billing Advantage.
