Survival Strategies

Empowering Private Practices for Growth and Success

While Craig Ferreira was working in the private practice sector, he observed that despite being experts in their fields, many practice owners struggled to manage their practices and assume the role of the CEO. He admired both their purpose to improve the health of their clients and their desire to help their communities. Consequently, he was compelled to show them how to bridge the gap between providing treatment and managing their businesses successfully. This prompted him to establish Survival Strategies, Inc. (SSI), a cuttingedge training and consulting firm that helps practice owners eliminate that gap by transforming them into efficient CEOs.

“At Survival Strategies, Inc., we implement the very same procedure that practice owners do with their patients—first, a thorough evaluation to identify challenges and difficulties, followed by a customized ‘treatment plan’ to address and correct what is lacking or needs improvement,” says Ferreira, founder and CEO.

Over the decades, SSI has worked with more than 5,000 private practices, making it a prominent and highly effective consulting firm in the field of private healthcare practices.

Prior to working with SSI, many of their clients endured common problems like difficulty in hiring and retaining staff, struggles with referral development, ineffective marketing and poor communication with both clients and staff. Such challenges typically lead to staff turnover, decreased production, fewer patients, insufficient insurance reimbursement and owner overload. Those situations inevitably result in an unabated decline in gross income.

“We provide applicable knowledge, skills and management systems, rather than creating a consulting dependency, with the intention of preventing clients from always relying on us to put out fires in their businesses.

We subscribe to that old adage – ‘Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime’” says Nancy Mura, President.

SSI’s programs, like the Consistent Referrals Program, are the gifts that keep on giving. For example, once clients complete that program, they will always know how to track their patient referrals and understand what to do to increase them.

The key benefits of SSI’s programs are the precision administration and management systems they provide to clients. These systems track vital metrics, enabling their clients to monitor growth and correct issues in real time. This precision is made possible by a complete understanding of all the key functions and statistics that are needed in any business and how to implement them to ensure success.

What distinguishes SSI from other consulting firms is their unwavering commitment to the success of their clients by guaranteeing a measurable return on investment (ROI) on most of their major programs.

They teach their clients how to create a culture within their practices, whereby the entire team moves together in the right direction...and wins! One of the key SSI services that facilitates that is their most popular program—the Management and Efficiency Program. It provides the blueprint on how to structure a practice so that the owner is running it, rather than the practice running the owner. Upon program completion, practice owners thoroughly know how to effectively delegate responsibilities to their team, no longer having to do everything themselves. The relief that provides to an overburdened owner is priceless.

With more than 35 years of experience, Survival Strategies, Inc. possesses the expertise and resources to help practice owners formulate their specific goals and to guide them toward their very own ideal scene. Their clients’ successes and continued expansion—even during the pandemic and with the current, tough economic conditions—are a testament to that. Furthermore, their sponsorship of industry-specific webinars, conferences and social media networking groups demonstrates their commitment to help private practices succeed. Ultimately, Survival Strategies is an invaluable partner for private practice owners looking to overcome their business challenges and reach their full potential.
