Ok,

I guess I didn't explain myself well enough (typical for me).

I would just like to know how many hours (paid or not) people are spending doing something besides doctoring at their office. I do EVERYTHING that does not pertain to working directly with the patient. But, again, that is not my question. I just want to know how much time you either pay someone (which I know MOST of you do not) or you and/or your spouse/partner spend touching ANYTHING IT in your office NOT pertaining to entering DATA into AC.

ALL of the staff here expect to walk into the office, open their laptop/PC do what they need to do to enter DATA and then logoff at night. I do the rest. (This CAN NOT be changed and nothing else is negotiable for them to do).

Our office is VERY inefficient in its running (I know that, but can't get the provider to realize it). Yes, some of the providers ARE part-time (I guess I would say average amount of providers here at 1 time is 2 1/2).

Thanks again for your input so far,

Brian
