Treat to AI Target response to last week’s volume about generative ways to create Physician Referral prospecting lists gains momentum, with clarity. Our Start with Who mission stated:
AI is how we Amplify Impact by deftly utilizing AI-trained tools to create target lists and Executive Summaries on prospective referral sources.
HDI’s new AI List Creation Model is driven by:
- Proximity
- Specialty
- Affiliation
“Within a certain geography, we identify healthcare providers who treat patients with an array of hearing loss comorbidities and parse data to prioritize those not affiliated with and constrained by local health systems.”
Get off to a Smart Start. Like Baseline Exams needed for measuring changes in patients’ hearing acuities, your Target List data modeling will be analytically foundational. On a going forward basis, this benchmarks how measurable results will be accurately compared to starting points.

Imagine your curated list of 100 Core Contacts with these data fields:
| | |
➡️ Practice Name
➡️ First Name
➡️ Last Name
➡️ Professional Credentials
➡️ Primary Care
➡️ Speciality
➡️ Type
➡️ Current
| | |
➡️ Shared
➡️ Prospective
➡️ Practice Website
➡️ Street Address
➡️ City
➡️ State
➡️ Zip

Contrary to conventional wisdom, not all medical referrals are created equal. When your Physician Referral quantity grows, assessing the Quality of Referrals is key. Regarding candidates scheduling appointments with your Practice, evaluative metrics identify what % of referees from respective sources:
- Show up for appointments.
- Have testing results indicating measurable hearing loss.
- Exude a positive attitude about improving their quality of life.
- Actively engage in wanting to make well-informed decisions.
- As medically indicated, adopt prescribed hearing treatment plans.
| | Beyond these criteria, based on experience, what others do you suggest adding? For example, progressive Practices methodically record what level(s) of technology patients from each referral source typically select. As numerically diagnostic data emerges, trends become evident and time investments in medical networking efforts are logically prioritized. We see these Business Intelligence signals as your Practice’s… | | With persistent efforts over the coming months and years, fine-tuning your AIQ algorithm will validate its worth. For example, contrast the typical patient profiles from these 2 representative referral sources. | | |
Hometown Family Medicines’ referrals seldom show up for scheduled appointments. When they do, results rarely indicate a significant hearing loss. Further, seemingly skeptical from the outset, “wonder why they took (wasted) the time” and are disinterested in gaining knowledge about potential benefits of an expert hearing care journey.
For these reasons, only 10% of this cohort adopts a prescribed treatment plan, often with lower-tier technology. Making matters worse, they are impatient with the acclimation process, and this frustration contributes to hearing aid return rates being 3x higher than usual.
| | | |
In contrast, Main Street Primary Cares’ referrals diligently arrive at scheduled times, with healthy attitudes clearly reflecting respect for their Doctor’s recommendation to get an audiological evaluation. What started with their “How’s your hearing?” call to action question routinely leads to testing indicating moderate to severe hearing loss. Being eager to make well-informed decisions about improving quality of life, thoughtful questions are asked about comorbidities which may affect themselves or loved ones.
Remarkably, almost 50% of this group adopts a prescribed treatment plan, frequently with higher-tier technology. They are avid learners about acclimation process, attentive to gradual improvements and active participants in rehabilitation process. In addition, being Happy to Hear, they are enthused advocates for others in their circle of life to schedule a personalized hearing consultation with you.
