Want to Drop Dental PPO Contracts? Time to Stop Giving Away the Store!
Let’s get real:
Every dentist dreams of writing the big breakup letter—“Dear PPO, It’s not me, it’s you. And your 40% fee discount.”
Drop dental PPO contracts and suddenly your schedule gets lighter, your fees go up, your AR shrinks, and your team stops burning out. But… every practice fears one thing: “If I go out-of-network, will my patients bolt for the nearest $79 cleaning coupon?”
Here’s the truth: Practices who drop PPOs and replace them with a killer in-house membership program don’t just survive—they thrive. Let’s show you how, with stories, stats, and some Dan Kennedy-style tough love.
Dr. Lisa’s “Drop the PPO” Leap of Faith
Dr. Lisa was drowning in PPO write-offs. Every new patient meant less revenue, more paperwork, and a waiting room full of coupon chasers.
Her numbers:
-
61% of patients were PPO (ouch).
-
Effective collection rate: 63% (double ouch).
-
AR: $72,000 (triple ouch).
-
Team morale: one free pizza from mutiny.
Dr. Lisa decided to drop dental PPO contracts and launch a BoomCloud™ membership plan.
She communicated transparently, offered an irresistible member package, and retrained her team to focus on value—not just price.
From PPO Prisoner to Profit Queen
Dr. Lisa’s “Aha!” moment came after reading her EOBs (Explanation of Benefits) for the 500th time.
“Why am I letting insurance dictate my fees and business model?”
With her membership plan, she could set her own fees, get paid monthly (MRR!), and actually enjoy practicing again.
