3 Steps to Increase Practice Revenues $100k in 2010
Debbie Seidel-Bittke, RDH, BS

Profit CenterWhere does your practice production stand this time of the year? How are you utilizing the team to assess and connect with the practices’ patients? Many dental practices are still feeling the economic crunch but there is still time to capture six figures of production. Just making simple changes can create more than $100,000K in additional production this year. (Less than six months left in 2010 today!)

The secret to capture this:
If you could increase hygiene production by $500 each day or just $62.50/hour you will have an additional $62,000K in added profits for 2010.  At the time I am writing this there are approximately 100 working days left this year. This is treatment sitting in patient charts (or your computer) which has been undiagnosed and/or unscheduled production. Each time I go into an office I find that there are at least 200 patients who have untreated periodontal disease. Why did this happen? There are many reasons this happens and the best thing we can do for these patients to create a longer and very healthy life is to get them into preventive treatment. It is our responsibility to share our knowledge: the science behind periodontal disease – the oral/systemic link and how this can change the way they live life!

Now imagine that if this hygienist can co-diagnose at least $2,000/week in restorative, cosmetic dentistry and even appliances, (Occlusal guards, snore guards and/or whitening) this can boost your production potential even higher. There are approximately 26 weeks left in 2010 at this point in the year so this means another by $52,000. Together, these two services provide for over $100,000 in scheduled production on the books during the next 6 months. I will honestly and very simply tell you how to get to this profitability on your appointment schedule and in 2010. There are few steps to get this done!

Successes Stories

"After implementing the tools that Dental Practice Solutions taught us we have increased our profitability in the hygiene department and improved the health and care of our patients as well.

We have increased our production more than 50% in the past 5 months! I have hired Dental Practice Solutions to come into my office and it has proven extremely beneficial. Since Debbie was here, I have been amazed, not just that the hygienists have been able to produce more, but that my patients have expressed their satisfaction. We are able to offer optimal patient care while increasing our production. We have increased production on all of our schedules; doctors as well as the hygienist's.Dr. R J. Patterson
Thank you Debbie!"

Welcome Back!

Letter From The Founder of Dental Practice Solutions

Dear Colleagues,

Welcome to our July newsletter! Our hope is that all of you in the United States had a safe and Happy 4th of July!  I hope you are off to a great July no matter where you live. Thank you to all who are reading our information each week. We are here to be your resource and guide to success!

I was just writing my article for today’s newsletter and when counting the working days left this year, there are still over 100 days available for increased profits. For those of you who (our readers in the U.S.) will celebrate Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas and the week between New Years, I have taken out those holidays when counting working days. Other offices in Canada, Europe, the Philippines, etc., may work more days this year which means even more potential for additional profits in 2010.

In the featured article for today, I give you 3 Steps to increase your profits by $100,000.00 this year. Yes, I really mean over $100,000K this year – 2010, when you follow just these 3 steps!

Doctors, as the leader of your practice, you have the power to change the course for your success today. Your team will actively need to be involved, but it comes from what you want for the practice – your vision and what value you can add to the team and the patients as well.

Possibly you are implementing all three steps, but I am sure there are some tips here that you can utilize, in your practice, to increase profits in just the next 26 weeks. Please read my featured article to discover some secrets to the next level of success for your dental practice.
