It’s almost the most wonderful time of the year! The holidays are right around the corner, bringing with them a fuller schedule, not just for get-togethers with family and friends but for appointments at your practice as well. Many patients realize that their dental insurance benefits reset by the end of the year, so they fit in their second covered dental visit while they can. However, your practice can become overwhelmed trying to deal with this overload of insurance claims to process around this already busy time of year. Luckily, Dental Support Specialties offers much-needed backup for time-consuming dental insurance tasks. Read on to learn why you should outsource dental verification this holiday season.

Every day you have a steady stream of patients come in. Your schedule is full most of the time, and you and your patients are generally pleased with the work you perform. And yet, your practice doesn’t seem to be flourishing the way you’d expect. Upon reviewing your finances, you find that your team seems to be struggling with getting payments from dental insurance and patients. Well, Dental Support Specialties can change that! Below are some of the ways that working with this company on your dental billing can make a difference in your practice’s success.

As you review your practice’s finances, you notice that dental insurance payments are lagging behind and impacting your bottom line. This important source of revenue needs to improve, but how?

In between appointments with patients, you overhear one of your staff members on the phone, struggling with insurance verification. They’ve been on the call for a long time, their frustration starting to become apparent in their voice. Because your in-office patients need assistance to check in and check out, this team member has to put their insurance tasks on the backburner to make sure everyone receives the attention they deserve. However, these incomplete, necessary tasks leave you with incomplete claims that need to be paid. With a strain on your team’s time and energy, what’s the solution? Dental insurance support from Dental Support Specialties can take this burden away and allow your team to focus on helping your patients have a more seamless experience in your practice.

Are you having issues with the administrative side of your dental practice?

Then, you can focus on helping patients who come into your office.

Every day, you try to keep your schedule filled with as many patients as you can while still maintaining a high level of quality in your services. You want to do your best to avoid gaps in order to make more money. How can you make sure that this ideal situation happens more often than not? It’s simple.
