Practice Economics
Understand how procedures contribute after direct costs, how site of service changes the math, and why aggregate revenue can hide struggling service lines.
GrowUrology helps independent urology practices make clearer decisions about economics, operations, equipment, referrals, coding, reimbursement, and revenue-cycle management. Built for urologists, owners, and administrators, the platform combines plain-English explainers, browser-based calculators, and practical frameworks using each practice’s own inputs. Explore ways to understand capacity, evaluate growth opportunities, and strengthen the business side of urology without relying on unsupported assumptions.
Practical resources that help independent urology practices evaluate financial, operational, staffing, equipment, and revenue-cycle decisions.
Understand how procedures contribute after direct costs, how site of service changes the math, and why aggregate revenue can hide struggling service lines.
Evaluate core urology procedure and service lines as distinct revenue engines, with attention to capacity, cost structure, documentation, billing, and compliance.
Assess equipment purchases, leases, utilization, break-even volume, reprocessing capacity, staffing requirements, and negotiated consumable costs before committing capital.
Use authoritative payer sources, denial-root-cause analysis, prior-authorization processes, and contract guidance to address reimbursement and payment issues.
Build staffing and scheduling decisions around real clinical sessions, capacity measures, APP roles, and physician workflow rather than generic assumptions.
Identify coding issues, missed charges, underpayment, authorization gaps, unworked appeals, and other revenue leakage affecting independent urology practices.
GrowUrology makes the business side of independent urology easier to evaluate by connecting clinical activity with economics, staffing, capacity, reimbursement, and revenue-cycle performance. Its resources help practices test assumptions against their own data rather than vendor projections or unsupported benchmarks. From equipment and service-line expansion to coding and payer issues, the platform supports more disciplined decisions across the practice.
A transparent resource platform focused on practical business decisions for independent urology practices.
Resources address the operational and financial questions specific to independent urology practices.
Calculators and frameworks help practices evaluate decisions using their own data and assumptions.
Published methodology, sourced claims, and clearly labelled illustrative defaults support informed evaluation.
Free tools and explainers are available without email gating or transmission of user-entered data.
A practical resource for independent urology practice decision-makers.
GrowUrology was created to address the gap between the increasingly sophisticated business demands on independent urology practices and the limited training many physicians receive in procedure economics, payer contracting, capital planning, and revenue-cycle design. The site is a business-resource platform published and funded by Persistex, a Massachusetts-based medical billing, coding, and revenue-cycle-management firm. GrowUrology provides free tools, calculators, benchmarks, and plain-English explainers so practices can make the business side of urology more legible. Its resources help users evaluate their own inputs, identify capacity opportunities, understand break-even questions, and recognize revenue-cycle issues. Practices can also connect with Persistex when they want help acting on those findings.
Cystoscopy is described in the service material as the highest-volume procedure in most practices. GrowUrology approaches it as an operational and financial service line, examining scope reprocessing, fleet sizing, session capacity, documentation, and common billing issues such as unsupported modifier 25 claims and modifier 59 unbundling errors. Actual procedure mix varies by practice, referral base, and clinical focus.
