Hey dentist! If D0120 sounds familiar (spoiler: it should), then congrats — you’ve found the gold vein in your practice you’re probably not mining properly.
In plain English:
D0120 = Periodic Oral Evaluation = the fancy code for your bread-and-butter routine checkup.
It’s the spark plug for nearly every cleaning, crown, filling, or Invisalign case you’ll EVER diagnose.
But here’s the kicker: insurance companies reimburse D0120 like it’s worth a stale bagel and a polite thank you.
So, how do you make D0120 actually work for you?
Answer: Wrap that baby in a membership plan and watch your Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR) turn into a steady waterfall of cash.
Stick around — I’ll show you EXACTLY how.
Meet Dr. Ben
Small-town practice. Big dreams. Killer playlists in the operatory (90s hip-hop, thank you very much).
For years, D0120 felt like a joke to him:
-
$38 from insurance
-
45 days to get paid (maybe)
-
Patients ghosted on checkups because “insurance won’t cover another one yet.”
Translation: wasted time, lost revenue, empty chairs.
Then Dr. Ben discovered BoomCloud™ and a radical idea:
What if I stop letting insurance dictate when patients come in, and start charging THEM directly through a simple membership plan that covers D0120 (and more)?
Within 10 months:
✅ 380 active members
✅ $15,200 in Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
✅ $182,400 in locked Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR)
✅ Patients showed up like clockwork, paid upfront, and said YES to treatment 2X more often.
D0120 went from a penny-ante insurance write-off to a patient loyalty magnet that funded Dr. Ben’s new CBCT scanner and a family vacation to Maui. ️
Now it’s YOUR turn.
Take your routine D0120.
Build it into a killer membership plan.
Let BoomCloud™ handle the automation, billing, renewals, and reminders.
Result?
✅ Predictable MRR
✅ Happier patients
✅ Less dependence on tightwad insurance companies.
Russell Brunson would say: Sell certainty, not confusion.
Guess what D0120 is? A big ol’ pile of confusion for patients:
“How often is it covered?”
“Do I have to wait six months?”
“Is it free?”
They hate that game.
But a membership plan?
✅ One flat fee.
✅ Two D0120 checkups a year.
✅ Cleanings, X-rays, perks — all covered.
They show up. They spend more. They refer friends. YOU control the schedule and the revenue.
It’s the Dan Kennedy dream: predictable cash flow, fewer excuses.
Real Numbers That Should Wake You Up:
Membership patients spend 2X–4X more per year than uninsured patients.
BoomCloud™ practices reduce insurance dependency by up to 60%.
Practices with 300+ members easily hit $10k–$20k in MRR.
