Is Your Money Disappearing Without You Even Knowing?
Embezzlement isn’t a dramatic, one-time heist. It’s a slow, subtle drain that can continue for years—even decades—without being detected. Many physicians don’t realize what’s happening until it’s too late, leaving them facing financial disaster. The IRS is at their door, creditors are calling, and bank accounts are empty. Practices that took years to build are suddenly in jeopardy, with all that hard work and dedication gone in an instant.
Think it can’t happen to you? Think again.
Embezzlement is alarmingly common in medical practices. In fact, statistics show that 78% of small medical practices will experience it at some point. It can occur at any level—from the receptionist to the practice manager, even a spouse. No practice is truly safe, no matter how much you trust your employees, CPA, or family members. And it can happen so discreetly that the money never even reaches your bank account—making it invisible to your CPA or bank.
It’s a threat that’s real and ongoing unless you take proactive steps to prevent it.
We’ve all heard the horror stories but often think, “That could never happen to me.” Don’t wait until it does.
