If you’ve been wrestling with insurance hassles, low PPO reimbursements, and inconsistent revenue, it’s time to take control with an in-office dental savings plan. These plans allow patients to pay a monthly or annual fee for preventive care and discounts, cutting out insurance middlemen and creating financial freedom for your practice.
Ready to ditch the PPO grind? Let’s explore how an in-office savings plan, powered by BoomCloud™, can transform your practice.
What is an In-Office Dental Savings Plan?
An in-office dental savings plan is a subscription-based alternative to traditional insurance. Patients pay directly to your practice for access to services like cleanings, exams, and discounts on additional treatments.
Key Features:
- No insurance claims or pre-authorizations.
- Affordable options for uninsured patients.
- Increased loyalty and recurring revenue for your practice.
Why Launch an In-Office Savings Plan?
1. Replace PPO Revenue
PPO reimbursements often don’t cover the true cost of care. A savings plan allows you to set fair prices and collect payments directly.
2. Predictable Income
With monthly or annual payments, your cash flow becomes consistent and reliable.
3. Build Patient Loyalty
Patients who subscribe to a savings plan are more likely to stay with your practice long-term.
How to Create an In-Office Dental Savings Plan
Step 1: Define Your Ideal Patient Profile (ICP)
Identify the demographics most likely to benefit from your plan, such as:
- Uninsured patients.
- Seniors.
- Small business owners or employees.
Step 2: Design the Plan
Customize a plan that fits your patients’ needs.
Example Savings Plan:
- Cost: $30/month or $300/year.
