Your Practice Is Full. So Why Isn’t It Growing? with Genevieve Poppe
What if dental insurance isn’t just limiting your reimbursements—it’s limiting how your team thinks?
Jordon Comstock welcomes dental practice consultant Genevieve Poppe for a candid conversation about the insurance mindset keeping practices busy, overwhelmed, and stuck at a revenue ceiling. They explore how an obsession with insurance estimates can distract teams from helping patients accept the care they need—and why a full schedule doesn’t always mean a productive practice.
Genevieve explains how to shift treatment conversations from “if” patients will proceed to “how” they can move forward, stop making assumptions about patients’ budgets, and build confidence around financial conversations. They also discuss PPO transitions, membership plans, and how clear roles, scorecards, and accountability help practices turn effort into results.
