Calculator

Medical Practice Marketing ROI Calculator

Enter your monthly marketing cost, the new patients it produced and what a new patient is worth to your practice. The calculator shows return on investment, revenue per marketing dollar and cost per new patient.

Your numbers for one period

Use the same month or quarter for every input. Patient value should be your own estimate of net revenue per new patient over a period you choose. Nothing you enter is stored or sent.

Advertising, fees, tools and staff time.

Patients whose first visit came from tracked marketing.

Your own estimate, for example first year net revenue.

Leave blank to calculate on revenue rather than margin.

ROI uses margin when you provide it. Results depend entirely on your inputs and attribution; this tool does not compare you with industry benchmarks.

Getting trustworthy inputs

ROI is only as reliable as attribution. Capture the source of every new patient at intake, track calls and forms, and use a patient value your finance team agrees with. Our guide on how to evaluate healthcare marketing ROI explains attribution choices, and the analytics and reporting service sets up the data behind it.

FAQ

Medical Practice Marketing ROI Calculator FAQs

Should I calculate ROI on revenue or margin?

Margin gives a truer picture of profit, so use it when you know it. Revenue based ROI is simpler and useful for comparing channels, as long as you label it clearly.

What period should I use for patient value?

Pick a period that matches how your practice thinks about patients, such as the first year, and use it consistently so results are comparable over time.
