As part of a collaboration with business analytics provider, Gaidge, after each calendar quarter the AAO receives and shares with members key metrics compiled from a subset of Gaidge client practices. This subset includes:
● Single-doctor practices under $1 million in quarterly productivity; and
● Multi-location practices with up to 10 locations.
The purpose of the collaboration is to aid members with assessment of practice health, short-term and long-term goal-setting and other key practice processes.
