Large medical groups are increasingly choosing to partner with Zocdoc to carve out more market share and reach their growth goals. In fact, we\u2019ve seen 10x growth from this market segment since the beginning of 2020, when large medical groups had 5,600 providers on Zocdoc. Today, they\u2019re over 56,000.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18282\" src=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1692\" height=\"1098\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1.png 1692w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1-300x195.png 300w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1-1024x665.png 1024w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1-768x498.png 768w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_01-1-1536x997.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1692px) 100vw, 1692px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why do these groups partner with Zocdoc? We enable their strategic growth playbooks in three key ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>1. They focus on patient value metrics<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Large medical groups place an emphasis on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zocdoc.com\/about\/content\/patient-value\/?utm_medium=organicpro&amp;utm_source=TheScript&amp;utm_campaign=TheScript\">patient value<\/a> metrics like <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cost per lead<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and lifetime value, allowing them to improve their profit margins. The latter is important, since patients who come back again and again generate the highest revenue and are the most valuable. Choosing a platform like Zocdoc, that has built-in marketing, and pricing designed to facilitate long-term relationships (you only pay for a new patient booking) can help grow your bottom line. What\u2019s more, Zocdoc makes it easy for you to measure your ROI with transparent metrics customized to your health system \u2014 so you can see exactly how much you\u2019re getting out of your investment.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18283\" src=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1692\" height=\"876\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02.png 1692w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02-300x155.png 300w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02-1024x530.png 1024w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02-768x398.png 768w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_02-1536x795.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1692px) 100vw, 1692px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>2. They take advantage of advanced practice providers (APPs) to carve out more market share<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To meet patient demand, large medical groups often <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zocdoc.com\/about\/content\/advanced-practice-providers\/?utm_medium=organicpro&amp;utm_source=TheScript&amp;utm_campaign=TheScript\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">bring on advanced practice providers (APPs)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> including nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs). This expands their capacity and near-term availability while growing their business. Practices that use APPs had more availability over 90 days than those that don\u2019t.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Patients are also happy with the quality of care they get from APPs. Based on average reviews pulled in October 2022, Zocdoc found that appointments booked with APPs received an average rating of 4.76, while traditional providers received an average rating of 4.79.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>3. They\u2019re set up to move quickly and adapt<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zocdoc.com\/about\/content\/patient-bookings\/?utm_medium=organicpro&amp;utm_source=TheScript&amp;utm_campaign=TheScript\">Large medical groups<\/a> often have organizational structures that empower them to move fast when making decisions, helping them adapt and grow quickly. As they increase availability or expand into different specialities or locations, it\u2019s important to be able to target patient demographics accordingly.<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18285\" src=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1692\" height=\"986\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03.png 1692w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03-300x175.png 300w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03-1024x597.png 1024w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03-768x448.png 768w, https:\/\/thescript.wpengine.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/02.HSD-Article_03-1536x895.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1692px) 100vw, 1692px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By focusing on the right patient metrics, increasing near-term availability (hint: working with APPs and allowing patients to book directly with them), and operating in an agile manner, large medical groups can set themselves up for success.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zocdoc.com\/about\/enterprise\/?utm_medium=organicpro&amp;utm_source=TheScript&amp;utm_campaign=TheScript\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more about how Zocdoc can help grow your practice today<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over 100,000 providers rely on Zocdoc to connect with millions of patients and grow their businesses.
