EP742 "You say clinics should raise prices - what about the patients that can't afford it?"
Ep. 742
β’
Here's what gets thrown at me and how I answered:
- Isn't cash pay just a way for clinics to charge more and leave everyday patients behind?
- You say clinics should raise prices - what about the patients that can't afford it?
- What do you say to the claims that you're just encouraging people to abandon insurance to make a little bit more money?
- Isn't cash pay just a model that works in wealthy areas like Los Angeles?
- Is cash pay actually under threat - or are the owners just not evolving fast enough?
- Why are so many busy clinics still struggling to make real profit?
- What do you say to PT owners who keep working harder and harder but keeping less money?

785. EP785β"You're Not Having An Ai Conversation. You're Having A Leadership Conversation" [Coffee with Goughy: Live From LA]
26:15||Ep. 785You think you've got an AI problem. You don't.You've got a leadership problem.The staff pushing back on AI? They're the same ones who pushed back on your wellness program, your cash-pay model, your price increase. It was never about the thing β it was always about whether you're willing to lead.In this episode, I'm calling it out straight. Stop listening to people who haven't spent a minute studying what they're arguing against. Stop letting the front desk run your business vision. And stop confusing staff resistance with a reason to slow down.AI is coming whether you're ready or not. The new generation starting businesses tomorrow will have it baked in from day one β and they'll eat your lunch while you're still having the argument.Your people are still your greatest differentiator. But only if you lead them. That's the only decision that matters today.
