My practice got super busy after the pandemic. I have had a waitlist and been incredibly busy. It’s been stressful, but I have been grateful for business & to be helping people through a crazy time. This fall, I’ve noticed things slowing down and I don’t really know why. Has anyone else seen any similar trends (or know what might be going on)? TIA.

My book of business dipped a little during the summer months, but now that the holidays are coming (and all the family drama that comes with them), things are picking back up again.

I can see that! I think that's part of why I've been surprised... usually around the holidays, it seems to be pretty busy.

I think shelter in place and quarantine, as well as COVID itself, really affected people. Now that things are opening up and people have communities and wider support systems to rely on again, people aren't seeking out therapy as much.

I did observe a similar trend and I don't understand where it came from. Is it because of the holidays? If so, what about it? Or is it because the world is slowly opening up again that people aren't so confined anymore...

I really did not notice anything significant so this is quite interesting. But at what month did you observe the trend begin? And what months have you had the most visits?

It's really been just the past couple of months. I'm not sure if there's an issue with the practice. I've been in the process of switching business managers, so I wonder if that could be part of the problem too?

The holidays are here and people tend to need more help around the holidays.

That makes sense, I'm sure people have gotten busy with families and personal things.

Hmm can't say we have experienced that.

Were your visits primarily telehealth? I did notice a slow down in particular with telehealth visits.

Yes, I was doing quite a few telehealth visits. I've noticed a huge slowdown with those.

It could be that the holidays are coming up and people are trying to save money. Many companies are laying off employees in large numbers.

Ohhh I hadn't thought about that. That would make sense for sure.

Just started working in-house within the last couple of months. First real attorney gig after doing compliance.

Talked to my boss today and they want to hire another to take things off my plate since I am the only attorney. They plan to rewrite my job position to do more risk and compliance. Am I wrong for feeling like I should have been included in the convo?

Dual role position for a sub-specialist. It’s a very busy role that includes surgery scheduling , prior auths for surgeries and tests, referrals, returning patient calls regarding their surgeries, and to add to it, reviewing the schedules for out 2 Mds, 2 PA’s, & NP. They want everything done quickly but with also close attention to details but with absolutely no overtime.

I left my previous employer citing personal family issues. They were toxic, I honestly wasn’t sad to leave.

And I don’t even want to answer but I also don’t want them to hate me and ruin my reputation as a therapist in this small town. Im still onboarding at my new job. How do I respond?
