Empowering Dental Practices

I have been in the dental field since 2010 and never get tired of all there is to learn in such an ever growing industry. I started off in dental simply interning at my local dental office right out of school and a quickly found myself eager to learn more and more, gaining more responsibility and moving up to a management position. Fast forward five years and I found myself in a youthful and vibrant start-up dental office where I was the very first hire. Fast Forwarding even further almost 9 years that very same practice grew from that very first employee, myself to a team of over twenty individuals over two office locations.

I have worked along side my wife, Angelika who plays an integral role in Pinnacle Practice Solutions (PPS) for many years and I have watched her become an expert in the field of insurance verification. Having the correct insurance benefits is so valuable and with the correct tools and knowledge you can ensure you are giving your patients an accurate estimate for their out of pocket expenses.

Now to discuss going out of network... queue the dramatic music DUN dun DUN. I know it can be scary to make the big leap to go out of network but it is worth it, and because you are taking the time to read this blog I know you know YOU are worth it. Think about it... is it fair for huge publicly traded companies like Delta Dental to tell you, the privately owned dental office what you can charge patients. These insurances are strong arming you to charge the rates they set so that they can return more to their investors by having you charge less any they keep more of your patients' premiums.
