One critical metric that every successful healthcare provider should understand is the Average Patient Value (APV). This figure represents the average revenue your clinic generates per patient over their entire engagement period. Tracking APV helps you understand your practice's financial health, patient retention effectiveness, and potential growth opportunities.
What is Average Patient Value?
Average Patient Value is calculated as the total revenue generated from patient appointments divided by the total number of patients. Simply put, it shows how much, on average, each patient contributes financially to your clinic.
Formula:
Average Patient Value (APV) = Total Appointment Invoices Issued / Total Number of Patients
Example:
For instance, an allied health clinic has an APV of $581.85. This means that on average, every patient contributes $581.85 to the clinic throughout their engagement period.
Is $581.85 a Good APV?
Determining whether $581.85 is good depends on various factors, including the type of healthcare services provided, the clinic's location, and specialty. For many allied health clinics, this APV would typically be considered strong, especially if patient retention is steady and costs are managed efficiently. Comparing your APV against industry benchmarks or your clinic's historical performance can offer deeper insights.
Why APV Matters:
Financial Health: A higher APV generally indicates healthy financial management and strong patient engagement.
Growth Opportunities: Understanding your APV helps identify strategies to enhance revenue through targeted services and patient retention.
Operational Efficiency: By analyzing APV, clinics can streamline operations and optimize resources for better patient care.
