Who Moved the Cheese? Wendy Briggs, RDH & John J. Meis DDS, FAGD, DICOI
Dr. John Meis and Wendy Briggs will share what many of the Top Practices are doing differently than the masses, and why their results are better. The entire dental team will enjoy this informative, yet practical formula for realizing higher productivity. Highly successful practices have realized that doing dentistry today the same way it's always been
done is not producing the desired results! Many providers are frustrated at shrinking profit margins, higher costs, working longer hours for the same production, and the continual struggle keeping the schedule full.
Course Objectives
What to do differently, to achieve instant growth in your practice
How to attract a higher number of new patients
What the team can do, in Restorative and Hygiene to maximize the potential in your practice
The 5 Rs for a Productive practice, and how utilizing these Rs can skyrocket both patient service and profitability
How to compete with Corporate dentistry, profitably accept Dental Insurance, and thrive in spite of crazy economic conditions
Hygiene’s role in a growing dental practice: It's more than “just a cleaning”
How Wendy’s innovative approach has the potential to powerfully, immediately change your bottom line
Dr. Meis is an innovator in the field of practice management, marketing, leadership and team development. He is a practicing dentist in Sioux City, IA. Dr. Meis began a study of practices that were success outliers inthe dental industry. He noticed 11 differences in habits and attitudes between these outliers and less successful practices. These 11 differences, The Productive Practice Mindset, are the principles that The Team Training Institute uses to help dental practices overcome their obstacles and obstructions.
Wendy Briggs is a Registered Dental Hygienist with more than 25 years experience in dentistry. She is the President and CEO of Hygiene Diamonds, a worldwide practice management consulting firm that excels in increasing entire practice profitability with a focus on improving hygiene systems.
The Future of Dentistry
Charles Blair, DDS
PPO dominance and lack of busyness are top concerns of dentists. New graduates are weighing options as corporations can offer cash, security, and relief from employee headaches – it is the new quick-start option. Even established dentists who are looking to transition their practice see a way to sell without the hassle of finding a buyer. The growth of corporate dental practices is a real risk to our cottage industry. PPOs are dominating the marketplace with an 80% share while
out-of-network practices are less than 18% of the market. Several Delta Den-tals are cutting reimbursements and one requires PPO participation as a condi-tion of participating in the higher fee Delta Premier Program. So what is the answer? What is the best for the future of dentistry? Learn the best options for the traditional practice’s survival: how to counter-punch, when to join PPOs, etc. Unfortunately, the private practice challenge of running a practice is now beyond most physicians and some dentists. This in-depth look at the demise of a cottage industry will be an eye opener for attendees!
Course Objectives
The participant will gain knowledge into the future of dentistry.
The participant will learn how to counter corporate dentistry with the traditional practice.
The participant will gain knowledge of how PPOs work, when to join, and how write-offs can be minimized.
