Dental Payment Software: Why Patient Membership Plans Are Total Game-Changers

December 22, 2024
Written by: Jordon Comstock

Alright, dental trailblazers, let’s talk about one of the most underrated weapons in your practice’s arsenal: dental payment software. You might be thinking, “Payment software? Really? That’s what we’re hyping up?” But stick with me here—when paired with a killer patient membership plan, it’s the key to predictable revenue, loyal patients, and a practice that practically runs itself.

Today, we’re diving into why BoomCloud™ is the MVP of dental payment software, why patient membership plans are essential, and how practices are using them to build empires (complete with some juicy case studies). Let’s do this!


Why Patient Membership Plans Are a Must-Have

Think of patient membership plans as the Netflix of dentistry. Patients pay a small monthly or annual fee to access perks like free cleanings, discounts on treatments, and the warm, fuzzy feeling of VIP status.

What’s in It for Patients?

  1. Affordable, Predictable Care: No surprise bills. Just easy, budget-friendly payments.
  2. Exclusive Discounts: They save on everything from crowns to teeth whitening.
  3. VIP Perks: Priority scheduling and other benefits that make them feel special.

What’s in It for Your Practice?

  1. Recurring Revenue: Say goodbye to the feast-or-famine cycle. Memberships create consistent cash flow.
  2. Higher Case Acceptance: Membership patients say “yes” to treatment 40%+ of the time, compared to just 38% for PPO patients and 24% for cash patients.
  3. Loyal Patients: They’re invested in your practice—literally.

BoomCloud™: The Ultimate Dental Payment Software

If the idea of managing a membership plan makes you break out in a cold sweat, don’t worry—BoomCloud™ is here to save the day. It’s like having an extra team member who handles all the boring stuff so you can focus on what really matters: giving your patients amazing care.

  • Tracks Renewals: Never lose a member because you forgot their renewal date.

“BoomCloud™ made running our membership plan seamless,” says Dr. Paycheck. “It’s hands-down the best decision we’ve made for our practice.”


Case Study: The Success Story of Smiles Unlimited Dental

Meet Smiles Unlimited Dental, a thriving practice that decided to shake things up by launching a membership plan with BoomCloud™. Here’s how it went down.

The Problem

They were tired of dealing with low case acceptance rates, unpredictable revenue, and the endless headaches of insurance claims. Sound familiar?

The Solution

They created a membership plan using BoomCloud™, offering patients:

  • 2 cleanings per year.
  • 20% off additional treatments.
  • Priority scheduling.

The Results

  • Members Signed Up: 1,500 patients at $40/month.
  • Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR): $60,000.
  • Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR): $720,000.
  • Increased Patient Spend: Membership patients spent 3X more on elective treatments like whitening and implants compared to non-members.

The Secret Sauce: Membership Patients Are Your MVPs

Let’s get real—membership patients aren’t just good for business; they’re the backbone of your practice. Here’s why:

  • They Spend More: With discounts baked into their plan, membership patients are more likely to go for high-margin treatments.
  • They’re Loyal: Memberships create a sense of exclusivity and commitment. They’re not going to leave you for the dentist down the street.
  • They Refer Friends: Happy members love sharing their experience, which means more patients for you.

“Our membership patients are our biggest fans,” says Dr. Smile Maker. “They’re loyal, engaged, and they spend more than anyone else.”


Example Membership Plan That Works

Basic Membership Plan

  • Cost: $35/month or $400/year.
  • Includes:
    • 2 annual cleanings.
    • 1 set of X-rays.
    • 15% off all additional treatments.
    • Priority scheduling.

Family Plan

  • Cost: $90/month for up to 4 family members.
  • Includes:
    • All benefits of the Basic Plan.
    • Discounts on orthodontic treatments for kids.

How to Market Your Membership Plan

Launching a membership plan is just the beginning. Here’s how to spread the word:

  1. Social Media: Post about the benefits of your plan and include patient testimonials.
  2. Email Campaigns: Send newsletters highlighting exclusive membership perks.
  3. In-Office Signage: Place posters in your waiting area and train your team to mention the plan to every patient.
