		<description>Mike,

Shortly after the July MGMA Connexion went to press, I met up with David Gans who wrote The Data Mine column, &quot;When patient volume decreases, bad things happen - quickly&quot; that you mentioned above.
 
Just thought you might want to hear this podcast I recorded with him, where we talked about what administrators and practice leaders could do to prevent patient volume decrease. Marketing certainly is a good way that we didn&#039;t mention! But he does give five other things you can do right now to circumvent the problem. (Fast forward to the end of our interview to get to that part.)
