Insurance Decisions That Can Make or Break New Dental Practices
If you’re launching or buying a dental practice, insurance decisions can make or break your first three years.
Too many new owners sign onto every PPO “just to get patients in the door.”
What they don’t realize is that every contract they sign can take years to unwind, and the lower reimbursements can bury their margins before they ever break even.
Why Strategic Credentialing™ Matters for Startups and Acquisitions
That’s where trademark-pending Strategic Credentialing™ changes the game.
Instead of saying yes to every PPO, we help new owners identify which networks align with their goals, demographics, and desired fee structure, so they can grow profitably from day one.
The Hidden Leverage New Practice Owners Have
Startups and acquisitions have leverage. That’s the secret.
You’re new, you’re valuable, and you’re building something from scratch—PPOs know that.
When you approach credentialing strategically, you can secure the highest-paying fee schedules before you ever open your doors.
Real Results From Strategic PPO Credentialing
We’ve seen startups increase their projected first-year revenue by over $100K simply by credentialing strategically instead of traditionally.
The Biggest PPO Mistake New Owners Make
The biggest mistake new owners make? Treating credentialing like paperwork instead of a partnership.
Start strong, set the right foundation, and make the PPOs work for you—not the other way around.
