We need to be effective first, and then efficient second.

In this solo episode, I discuss how we can be effective in our practice. We often set our goals to achieve a certain amount or perform specific procedures. But how can we reach these goals quickly and yield better results? In dental practice, effectiveness and efficiency are often used interchangeably, but they have distinct differences. In reality, we can strive for efficiency as much as we want, but we will eventually reach a limit. On the other hand, being effective means maximizing what we have at our disposal for the greater good.

It's time to reset your long-time patients. 

In this episode, Meredith and I discuss the use of code D0150, which is typically applied to new patients but can also benefit those who have been with the practice for an extended period. Updating records comes at a cost of $20 per patient, and conducting this every 3-5 years can significantly boost earnings. Moreover, it offers patients the opportunity to review their progress and identify changes over time. Implementing this strategy may pose challenges, but it ultimately simplifies the role of the treatment coordinator. 

Building trust over years of patient interaction enables practitioners to confidently recommend necessary treatments, underscoring the importance of trust and positive experiences in dental practice.

In this episode, Adrian Valente from Sunbit emphasizes how important patient financing is to the success of dental practices, stressing how it may empower patients and help them get the care they need without breaking the bank. Practices can promote comprehensive treatment and improve patient satisfaction by putting affordability above pricing.

Adrian encourages owners of dental practices to use patient finance as a development accelerator, taking advantage of its potential to raise case acceptance rates, improve patient care, and boost business profitability.
