NEWSFLASH: YOUR PROFITABILITY is YOUR Responsibility, No One Else's! - Dental Profits #44

16m · Dental Profits · 15 Jul 16:18

Recent studies show that Dentists' earnings is staying flat while dental insurance reinbursements DECREASE! And I'm here to tell you that your Profitability is YOUR responsibility! Just because insurance reinbursements are decreasing, it does not mean that your profitability has to suffer.

Here's what I would tell you:

1. Everyone is in sales! Simply doing the clinical things in your practice can't be the only thing you focus on. Realize that you are in sales. Put a focus on finding out what is MOST important to the patient and creating VALUE for each and every patient. Come to this realization, find the things in your practice that are and aren't working, and come up with strategies to MAXIMIZE your dental practice!

2. Realize that patients' dental insurance company is a tool. The insurance companies are running a business just like you and are going to make decisions that serve them. If you 100% depend on insurance, as soon as their reinbursements decrease, your practice suffers! Realize that taking insurance is a choice, and your profitability should not rely on it.

3. Get outside help! There are unlimited resources online to help you maximize your practice. You can read some books, research online, find dental business strategists. Any of these resources will help you decide what you want your practice to be, and can help you come up with strategies to help you get there!

What Makes an EFFECTIVE Morning Huddle? - Dental Profits #47

Today I'm talking about one of the most important and most underutilized tool in your dental practice. The Morning Huddle!

Someone asked me the other day, "What makes an effective Morning Huddle?"

And effective Morning Huddle or Team Meeting is all about planning your day and figuring out what needs to happen in order to meet goals.

So how might a Morning Huddle go?

Usually, this is the only time of the day where everybody on the team is together specifically to plan the day. Everyone on the team already knows the goals for the day and each producer comes in already having done due diligence. Having already figured out what needs to happen and what requests they need to make in order to hit their goal for the day.

EDUCATION ≠ GROWTH! - Dental Profits #46

Today on Dental Profits I'm talking about one of the biggest challenges and opportunities that I see TIME AND TIME AGAIN! Education DOES NOT equal GROWTH!

You're trying to grow your practice, you're trying to increase your Treatment Acceptance, and in order to do that you and your team are implementing new systems and strategies to drive those results.

It's very easy to get caught up in learning how and what goes into those new strategies, and it's easy to throw in the towel when things get tough. Learning HOW to do things is only about 10% of the process! The other 90% is creating a culture for success, challenging legacy beliefs, and getting results!

THE FINANCIAL CONSULT: The Missing Link?? - Dental Profits #45

Today on Dental Profits I'm talking about the FINANCIAL CONSULTS, the missing link? The way I see it, the financial consults is the link between wasted chair time and treatment acceptance. Here's an example: You have a new patient come in and you put them through the process. You spend the time to do a comprehensive exam, present the diagnosis, and through that whole process, you find out that there's a challenge with the finances. The patient isn't able to pay.

This is something that should've been discovered on the front end, even before doing an exam. If the patient calls and you ask the necessary questions and find out that, ultimately, the patient won't pass on a third party financial application, you can have them come in for a financial consult. You can come up with a solution for them to be able to afford their treatment, and you'll no longer waste your time or their time.
