Using Today's Technology To Better Your Business

By Allison Bracken


The first one is entitled "Creating a Fee for Service Practice". One can expect to learn a step-by-step process involving reaching the ideal goal for them. It's important to know what the key ingredients are in order to succeed in the future. Dr. Schuster expresses his key strategies to create a fee for service practice. You need to be able to decide what is important enough for you to take on. Dentists who tend to focus on patient-centered, health-focused, practices tend to thrive more. They have the leeway to create more freedom for themselves and feel more fulfilled in their career.

"I Only Want What Insurance Will Pay For," is a video for dentists tired of this sort of response to medical recommendations. Many people do not want to pay thousands of dollars for what they see as unnecessary surgery. This video can inform you how to deal properly with these types of situation. It is important to be able to help a patient understand what they should focus on with their oral health. Another important skill is to know how to help as opposed to manipulating a patient. You can learn this by joining "Helping Your Patients Say Yes!" You must know how to guide your patient to make the best decision for them. It must benefit the patient and their long-term health, not just the dentist's bank account.

But knowing how to deal with the basic business functions will save the dentist money by eliminating the often expensive overhead associated with hiring in qualified, yet expensive, consultants and advisors. Saving money is one goal of the Schuster Center, but its primary concern is equipping dentists and other dental professionals with the knowledge they need to operate a functioning dental business office.

If knowledge is power, then dentists can start by enrolling in one course to find out what the academic waters are like before committing any additional time to the effort. Students can go at their own pace, and decide what to learn and when. The Schuster Center offers education, not a degree. As the Schuster Center knows the daily demands of operating a dental office, they are prepared to help you get immediately started with your business education.

Finances for a business generally come down to income and expenses, or accounts receivable and accounts payable. Because of the many possible forms of payment and always having to have the basic dental equipment available, cash flow can become a major problem. This is an important part of the course material and is closely connected to establishing a budget and financial freedom goals to both grow the dental practice and to ensure its short-term viability. It is easy to see that while patients may not understand the expense of operating a dental practice, it is essential that the dental practitioner does see its necessity if they are to continue building their practice. Once the administration end is properly managed, the business end will see a profit that will be able to be capitalized in building and equipment or simply deposited to increase long-term cash flow. This is one of the many goals of the Schuster Center.
