Improving Practice Efficiency, Scheduling, and Overhead

Being a dentist is hard. Running a business is far more difficult, especially since many of us don’t get the level of training necessary to run them well. Many factors are affecting dentists nationwide: lower insurance reimbursement, corporate growth, inflation, and employee challenges. Today, to compete in the dental industry means knowing how to run a successful business as much as knowing the clinical aspects. If you feel like running the business is what always causes stress and problems, then it is time to change how you run your business.

While many will talk about efficiency, scheduling, and overhead as distinct concepts, they are intertwined together in multiple ways. When you modify one it changes the others. Efficiency is more about reducing unnecessary steps than it is about working faster. When you learn to be more efficient, you can do more in the same amount of time and feel less stressed and worn out.

Less steps and a better schedule naturally lead to decreased overhead costs, not to mention finding multiple ways to get the same results for lower costs.

You really can run your office successfully without all the stress and failures that many dentists continue to face every day. Let us show you the way.

Raving Patients: Get Visible, Get Credible: Get More New Patients

Word of mouth has always been the foundation for the acquisition of new patients by a dental practice but in our internet age, word of mouth is transformed because of reviews sites like Google, Yelp, and Facebook. Online reviews are now one of the biggest ranking factors in a local search.

Being credible is only one piece of the puzzle though. Your practice also needs to be found online when people are searching for a dentist near them. Are you at the top of the Google Map Pack? If not, you are invisible and all of those great reviews are not doing you much good.

However, it is estimated that over 95% of dentists overpay on their taxes due to a need for more understanding of the complex tax system.

The presentation also covers key elements of financial statements and strategies for defending against an IRS audit.
