I’ve been thinking a lot lately about the various models within the DSO landscape. The traditional DSO model, the Dental Partnership Organization (DPO), and the Dental Partnership Group (DPG)—each of these structures offer different benefits, but also come with their own sets of challenges. The traditional DSO model has been around for a while, offering centralized ownership and management across multiple practices. It’s a great fit for those who want efficiency, scalability, and streamlined operations. But as with anything, it’s not without its challenges, especially when it comes to maintaining the unique culture of each practice under a centralized system. Then we have Dental Partnership Organizations (DPOs), which operate with a more collaborative approach. In this model, the dentist still maintains a level of ownership, but the DSO offers guidance and operational support. The benefit here is that dentists can have more autonomy while still gaining the operational expertise needed to scale. However, it may require a bit more effort on the DSO’s part to manage diverse business models. And let’s not forget the rise of Dental Partnership Groups (DPGs), which are gaining traction as a more flexible option for groups of dental professionals looking for a mix of independence and support. This model often provides more of a “partnership” style of management, where dentists are more involved in decision-making, but they still receive the operational and business backing needed to grow. As the industry continues to evolve, new models are emerging every day. The key is to understand what will work best for your goals and vision. Whether you're looking for centralized control, partnership-driven autonomy, or a hybrid of both, it's essential to weigh the pros and cons of each model carefully. Would love to hear your thoughts on these models—what has your experience been? Let’s dive into the conversation! #DSO #DentalPartnerships #BusinessModels #DentalIndustry

🤔 How do (US) hospitals spend money 101? Salaries, Wages, Benefits: 45-55% Professional Services: 12-22% Supplies: 12-18% Depreciation/Amortization: 3-6% Other Expenses: 5-20% 8 key insights: n°1. Hospitals consume 31% of US healthcare spending: Despite being the largest spending category, many hospitals struggle with low operating margins, often below 2%. n°2. Labor costs dominate hospital expenses: Salaries, wages, and benefits account for 45-55% of a hospital’s expenditures, with front-line staff making up 75-82% of the workforce. n°3. Contract labor adds significant costs: Hospitals often resort to staffing agencies due to labor shortages, paying 2-3 times more for contract workers compared to employed staff. n°4. Supplies account for 12-18% of expenses: This includes medical equipment, drugs, and personal protective equipment. n°5. For-profit vs. non-profit hospitals: For-profit hospitals tend to manage costs more efficiently, keeping salaries and expenses lower, but often at the expense of services like Medicaid or charity care. n°6. Economies of scale in larger health systems: Larger systems benefit from negotiating better prices for supplies and services. n°7. Rural hospitals face unique challenges: Limited access to talent and capital means rural hospitals must rely more heavily on expensive outsourced labor and struggle to offer high-margin services. n°8. Staffing shortages remain a key issue: Despite financial recovery post-COVID for many hospitals, staffing shortages continue, driving hospitals to explore different revenue models and operational changes to sustain profitability.​ Great post by the Out-Of-Pocket team Nikhil Krishnan & Ben Chao #healthcare

🤔 Have you ever wondered whether there is a sales process within healthcare or not? If so, what characteristics define a successful one? In an competitive dental healthcare market, effective marketing and sales strategies could be essential for reaching out and informing patients about available treatment options. But how do we in the best interest of our patients balance this with the ethics and integrity required in dental healthcare? My view, and it its highly personal, is the successful sales are all about building trust, whether or not it leads to an actual treatment. A trustful relationship between healthcare providers and patients is fundamental and should always be prioritized. I'm curious to hear your thoughts: What exactly do you consider yourself to be 'selling' in your professional role as an healthcare provider? Please share your insights and experiences! #Healthcare #Ethics #Trust #Marketing #Ortodontiakademin

May seem obvious but statistically, it's 3x more cost-effective than acqiring new dental lab clients. At NDX we had the best sales and marketing teams in the country and they brought in incredible amounts of new dentists. However, increasing same store sales from a trusted customer is always the best/fastest way to grow. Analyze sales data to identify cross-selling opportunities & understand what services clients use elsewhere. Targeted Promotions: Tailor marketing materials based on client needs, highlighting how your lab can meet them. Provide exceptional service & build trust to create lasting partnerships with dental labs. With this emerging tech, dental labs can create a sustainable growth model with their existing customer base. #MedTech #CustomerRetention #CX #Medical

Here a nice summary of new tech that helps patients with dental anxiety, new technology is being implemented to ease it. One of these innovations is an intraoral digital scanner. Traditional dental mold trays can be uncomfortable for patients and could cause those with fragile or loose teeth to worry about dislodgement. This noninvasive scanner can create a fully digital and more accurate image of the mouth, allowing patients to feel more comfortable and confident. #Dentistry #Technology #Innovation

The Power of Modularity: Tailor Treatments to Each Client What sets MIRApeel apart is its modular design. This means you can activate and utilize only the technologies that align with your practice’s focus, allowing you to offer highly specialized care. As new technologies emerge, you can seamlessly integrate them into your existing platform, ensuring that your clinic remains at the cutting edge without the need for costly upgrades. This modularity also translates into cost efficiency. Despite being a comprehensive platform, MIRApeel is surprisingly competitive in terms of cost. Clinics can lower their long-term operating expenses by reducing the need for multiple devices and consumables, making high-quality skincare accessible to a broader audience. And even with these savings, you can still charge premium prices for treatments—ranging from $200 to $250 for microchanneling sessions and up to $350 or $400 in premium locations like Los Angeles, New York, and Dallas—ensuring a strong ROI for your investment in MIRApeel. Science-Backed Protocols: A Foundation of Proven Results MIRApeel’s effectiveness isn’t just a result of advanced technology—it’s grounded in rigorous scientific research and collaboration with some of the most respected names in dermatology. The basic science of dermal infusion, a core component of MIRApeel, was pioneered by Dr. Ronald Moy, MD, laying the foundation for this transformative approach. The concept of a comprehensive skincare platform was further developed and refined in collaboration with Dr. David Goldberg, a renowned dermatologist in New York, who helped shape the platform’s multi-technology integration. Moreover, the studies conducted by Dr. Gordon Sasaki have been crucial in validating the efficacy of microchanneling, demonstrating its impact on skin permeability and long-term skin health. These collaborations ensure that every protocol used in MIRApeel is not only innovative but also scientifically validated, giving your clients the confidence that they’re receiving the highest standard of care. Building Client Loyalty: A Marketing Powerhouse But perhaps the most powerful aspect of MIRApeel is how it transforms the way you engage with clients. By offering a structured, multi-session program, you’re not just providing a service—you’re building a relationship. Clients understand that achieving and maintaining healthy skin is an ongoing process, and they’ll look to you as their trusted partner on this journey. The ability to offer premium, customizable treatments at competitive prices makes MIRApeel a powerful marketing tool. It helps you attract a wider range of clients, keeps them coming back for regular maintenance, and opens the door to upselling more advanced, high-ticket treatments over time. With MIRApeel, you’re not just growing your practice—you’re transforming it into a thriving business built on lasting client relationships and superior outcomes.
