What is Dental Patient Management?
Dental patient management encompasses everything from appointment scheduling and billing to communication and patient retention. Effective management ensures smooth operations and enhances the patient experience.
The Challenges of Traditional Patient Management
1. Dependence on PPOs
Low reimbursements and high administrative costs from insurance providers hinder profitability.
2. Unpredictable Revenue
Fee-for-service models often struggle with inconsistent cash flow.
3. Patient Retention Issues
Without loyalty programs, it’s challenging to keep patients coming back.
