Get Paid for Your Services

den_getpaid.jpg GET PAID FOR YOUR SERVICES: Simple, Sensible Payment Arrangements That Work! by Debbie Castagna, Jody Catalanello, Pam Bringman-Gorrell, Virginia Stockinger Moore, and Linda Wooton Valencia (The MOSAIC Management Group)

To provide dentists with an easy-to-use, straightforward process that will glean 98% of their collections, the five consultant members of the MOSAIC Management Group (of San Francisco and Chicago) combined their in-office expertise to write GET PAID FOR YOUR SERVICES: Simple, Sensible Payment Arrangements That Work!

What are the benefits of solidifying your payment arrangements and SOPifying your collections process?

-98% collection rate
-Higher case acceptance rate
-Clear patient responsibilities regarding financial obligations
-Healthier accounts receivable
-Fewer "difficult" accounts and accounts sent to the collections agency
-Improved cash flow

Additionally, the effects of your improved cash flow can ripple through your practice in the form of facility enhancements, better dental supplies, salary increases�for both you and your staff�and better employee benefits. Your written credit policy can be communicated with integrity and consideration so that your patients understand that their health is your priority. You will have consistent win-win payment arrangements that support your office credit guidelines.
