The Give Yourself a Raise Tour
Clinicians effectively give themselves a raise when practice profits increase by increasing revenue and/or decreasing expenses. The Give Yourself a Raise Tour focuses on top strategies for boosting revenue. More specifically, the program covers the "3Cs" of revenue cycle management:

• Contracting–PPO network contract negotiations and optimization to increase fee schedules
• Coding – correct dental codes to maximize insurance reimbursements
• Collecting – increasing money obtained through both insurance and patient billing procedures

"Giving yourself a raise requires a strategic approach to revenue management that focuses on boosting revenue and controlling expenses,” explains Reed in a press release. “Mastering the 3Cs of revenue cycle management plays a crucial role in enhancing revenue. By effectively negotiating contracts, optimizing dental code utilization, and improving billing procedures, you can increase your profit margins and ultimately give yourself a much-deserved raise."

This end-to-end solution is designed to enhance a dental practice's revenue cycle management and ease the burden on office staff, ultimately helping practices be more efficient, profitable, and patient-focused.
