What are the best ancillaries for internal medicine groups? 

That depends on what you like to do, what your market's needs are, and what your payers are willing to cover. Here are some of the ideas we've seen lately:

Running your numbers carefully. How exactly will you bill for this new service? Can you make enough on it to cover your expenses? What's the break-even point, and when can you expect to reach it?

Understanding exactly how you will ensure you have adequate, motivated staff to provide the service.

Thinking about the impact this new service will have on your patient base. For example, offering Botox can change the type of patients you have in your waiting room.

Having a plan for marketing the service to new and existing patients.

Evaluating potential competitors. Can you out-perform them?

Planning your scheduling for the service.
