The Successful Assistant Program can
increase your surgical revenue by $100,000 to $300,000
per year WITHOUT working longer or harder.
This is pure, bottom-line profit.
Have your dreams of a flourishing surgical practice dimmed? Are you working harder and harder only to make less and less? As you know, here are basically 2 reasons for this:
- Insurance carriers are paying less, and…
- You get stuck assisting your partner or another surgeon when you could be doing your own cases or otherwise building your own practice.
Here is a great solution in 3 easy steps.
Hiring or having access to a well-trained and certified Surgical Assistant will go a long way in solving the ‘working longer and longer for less and less’ dilemma. You can have a more successful practice, be more prosperous, and enjoy your surgical procedures like never before.
-
Choose an OR Nurse or Surgical Tech you really enjoy working with. It could be someone who you've already hired or someone you would be willing to hire.
-
Register them in the ACESA Surgical Assistant Program.
-
Start billing for their services, generate an extra $100,000 to $300,000 per year for your practice, and decrease the amount of assisting you have to do yourself. (or ACESA can do the billing for you. We can better assure your success because billing for the non-MD assistant is our specialty!)
"What if I don't do enough surgery
to justify hiring a Surgical Assistant?"
You have some excellent options
-
When you aren’t using your assistant, make him available to other surgeons. You can still bill for the service and create a whole new revenue stream.
-
When other surgeons ask you to assist them in surgery, when appropriate, ask them if they could use your assistant instead.
-
You can also enjoy many of the benefits your own assistant without hiring one. Encourage someone you like working with in surgery to enroll in the program. If there is resistance from hisr employer, 'insist' that he be allowed to take the program. When he graduates, he will still be a hospital employee but he will be available to assist YOU.
When you send your employee for ACESA training
or have an ACESA trained assistant available at the
hospital, your whole outlook will change.
- You’ll enjoy your surgical experience more because you’ll be working with someone you can trust, count on, who makes your cases run more smoothly, and who you genuinely like and enjoy working with.
- You’ll eliminate scheduling hassles and other frustrations that, up to this point, seemed to be a necessary evil.
- You may be currently settling for someone the hospital provides who, though good at handing instruments, lacks the skills and knowledge it takes to competently first assist. You’ll reduce your liability when your assistant is formally trained by ACESA and is nationally certified.
Develop Significant Expertise!
"I feel it to be an honor to be associated with Dan Bump and ACESA. I have known and worked closely with Dan Bump since 1989 and have great respect for his knowledge and skills. He has always provided me with the excellence in surgical assisting that I have needed and has shown the patience to be able to effectively transmit his experience to others. It is this quality that makes Dan uniquely able to provide a most worthwhile learning experience for surgical assistant students.
From a surgeon’s perspective, an assistant needs to provide more than simple tissue retraction. The assistant should properly be a reflection of the experience and judgment of the surgeon. Education gained through an ACESA course will provide the self assurance which will be well recognized by patients and surgeons alike. Surgeons do not want to begin a surgical procedure with inexperienced assistants and cannot be expected to provide education themselves when the assistants do not have the background to assist with knowledge and efficiency. ACESA will provide this background.
Dan Bump’s ability to provide a respected educational program is known throughout the country. His track record is undisputed and ACESA will be the beneficiary of this experience.
I feel that the Skill labs developed by Dan Bump and ACESA will produce a hands-on experience which will enable the prospective assistant to develop significant expertise. This will enable the assistant to gain the confidence of the surgeon and thereby enable the assistant’s career to flourish."
