Podcast transcript: https://www.canjsurg.ca/content/e136-corrie-white-medical-office-assistants-setting-office-emrs-and-billing

This week on the podcast we invited Corrie White, an absolutely fabulous and experienced Medical Office Assistant, to talk about what it takes to set up a well-functioning office. Corrie breaks down how to find a good assistant and what goes into setting up an efficient system. We’d love to hear from listeners: What do you wish you had known when you were first setting up your practice? Email us a [e-mail] or tweet at us @CanJSurg.

We’d like to make a plug for the upcoming Canadian Surgical Forum or CSF. This year the conference is happening in Toronto from September 15th to the 17th. There is a fantastic program this year, so be sure to register and attend. At the very least, follow the session highlights on Twitter with the hashtag #CSF2022.
