AWARENESS & READINESS · STAGE 1 · MONTHS 0–3
The foundational playbook. Demystifies AI for independent practices, builds the business case for adoption, and guides your first 90-day initiative — from readiness assessment to pilot design.
WHY THIS PLAYBOOK EXISTS
Independent practices are facing a defining moment. AI tools that once cost millions are now accessible at $50–500/month. But adoption without a plan is just expensive chaos. Most practices fail with AI not because the technology doesn’t work — but because they skipped the foundation.
Playbook 1 exists to fix that. It gives you a rigorous, practice-specific readiness framework, a clear method to evaluate which AI tools are worth your time, and a 90-day initiative plan you can execute with the staff and budget you already have.
Every framework was built against the real constraints of independent practice — limited IT support, lean admin teams, and a clinical culture that rightfully puts patients first.
