In dentistry today, PPOs are not your friend, they hurt your cash flow, demolish your profit margins, jeopardize your patient relationships & use A.I. to deny claims!!

If I had an employee or partner that messed up my business like that, I would FIRE them ASAP! 

$47. No fluff. Just results.

You in?

Thinking About Dropping PPO Contracts? Do It. But Do It Smart.

If you’ve ever looked at your end-of-month production and thought:

“Wait… I produced $100K but only collected $58K?”

Congratulations. You’ve been PPO’d.
And not in the fun, let’s-pop-bottles kind of way.

Let’s say it like it is…

PPO contracts are glorified discount traps that:

  • Slaughter your fees

  • Delay your payments

  • Force you to see more patients for less money

  • Burn your team out

  • And straight-up confuse your patients

And yet, 80% of dental practices are still shackled to them.

What if you could drop PPO contracts and still thrive?
Better yet — what if your revenue, retention, and referrals went up?

PPOs? Gone.
Recurring revenue? In.
Control, freedom, and scalability? Welcome back, baby.


The Doctor Who Said “No” to PPOs — and Built a 7-Figure Membership Machine

Let me introduce you to Dr. Lexi Porter, a general dentist in Sacramento.

In 2021, she had 6 PPO contracts… and 3 team members working overtime just to process claims.

She realized she was:

  • Getting paid 60% of her UCR

  • Waiting 45+ days for payment

  • Seeing 28 patients a day to break even

  • Losing 5–10 patients/month who couldn’t figure out their benefits

Then she asked the question every smart dentist eventually asks:

“What if I just… dropped the PPO contracts?”

So she did.
Cut 4 PPOs over 6 months.
Partnered with BoomCloud™ to build a membership plan.


Replace PPOs With Recurring Revenue (the Netflix of Dentistry)

BoomCloud™ isn’t just a membership tool. It’s your weapon of mass disruption.

With BoomCloud™, you can:

✅ Launch a branded membership plan in days
✅ Offer care directly to patients — no insurance middleman
✅ Collect Monthly Recurring Revenue (MRR)
✅ Scale your plan like a subscription business
✅ Track MRR, ARR, churn, and growth in real time
✅ Automate renewals, payments, and even marketing

Here’s how Dr. Porter used it to obliterate PPO reliance.


Dr. Lexi Porter’s “Ditch and Dominate” Strategy

Phase 1: The Exit Plan

  • Sent exit letters to 2 PPOs

  • Started educating patients via email, website, and in-office flyers

  • Created a value-packed plan: $30/month = cleanings, exams, X-rays + 15% off

Phase 2: Launch + Promotion

  • Promoted on website, socials, SMS, and front desk scripts

  • Used BoomCloud™ QR codes on hygiene slips

  • Offered a limited-time bonus (free whitening kit for new signups)

Phase 3: MRR Explosion

  • Enrolled 760 members in 9 months

  • MRR = $22,800/month

  • ARR = $273,600/year

  • Dropped all PPO contracts without losing patient base

  • Membership patients spent 3.7X more than PPO patients

  • Net Promoter Score = 91

“Patients LOVE the simplicity. And we love not having to beg for pennies from insurance.” — Dr. Lexi Porter


Dropping PPOs = Growing Revenue Per Patient

Let’s break the myths:

“If I drop PPO contracts, I’ll lose all my patients.”
✅ Nope. You’ll lose the price-shoppers and keep the loyal ones (and make more per visit).

“Patients only stay for insurance.”
✅ Not true. They stay for clarity, convenience, and care they understand.

“I need the patient volume from PPOs.”
✅ You need profit per patient, not burnout per day.


DATA DROP: What Happens When You Drop PPOs + Add a Membership Plan

Metric Before (With PPOs) After (BoomCloud™)
Collection % of UCR 58–65% 90–100%
Average revenue per patient $400/year $900–$1,600/year
Time to collect 45–60 days Instant
Patient retention (3-year avg) 52% 78–88%
Marketing cost per new patient $300+ $90–$120 (with referrals)

Membership patients don’t just stay longer.
They spend more, refer more, and are 3–5X more likely to accept treatment.
