Patient Spouses and Your Treatment Plans: The Truth

2024-04-15T16:33:18-04:00

"I have to go home and talk this over with my husband / wife." If you haven't heard that statement before, then you are either brand new to practice OR you are in a Medicare/Medicaid practice where there truly is never a discussion about a fee. Our readers are rarely either of those two things. Since almost 100% of our readers are either fee for service OR are trying to be such, here are my questions for you: If 90% of your patients' spouses are not coming to your major treatment presentations and their absence routinely means you get the [...]

Medical Billing for Dental Implants: Best Practices

2023-07-17T08:58:50-04:00

Medical Billing for Dental Implants: Best Practices Medical insurance billing for dental implant services is one of the most complex and challenging processes in the medical reimbursement arena. Dental implant reconstructions require a high level of clinical expertise on the clinician's part and involve high-tech diagnostic and treatment "armamentariums." On a per arch basis, dental implant services are lower in cost today compared to 20 years ago but, even with cost reductions due to time efficiencies, implant reconstruction procedures are still costly for the patient. For patients with documented medical necessity, the cost of reimbursement can be shifted to the [...]

How A.I. and Voice Search Are Transforming the Dental Implant Niche

2023-05-21T05:57:51-04:00

Voice Search and Its SEO Impact for Dental Implant Practices "Alexa, find an implant dentist near me." Have you ever wondered how AI and natural language search is transforming the dental implant niche? Today's post is for you. Voice search has revolutionized SEO for dental practices, particularly for patients searching for dental implants and dentists who provide implant services. With the increasing popularity of virtual assistants like Siri, Alexa, and Google Assistant, voice search has become a dominant technology, allowing users to interact with their devices using their voice instead of typing. By 2023, it is estimated that there will be [...]

Dental Mastermind: Igniting Practice Growth Through Accountability

2023-05-23T11:58:55-04:00

Masterminds are relevant. Napoleon Hill’s model of Mastermind groups for 10-20 business owners meeting together is a nearly 100-year-old concept that’s still going strong fast forwarding success for business owners in every industry. Why? Because if you take multiple smart individuals and put them together in a group with a highly skilled and knowledgeable coach (or several coaches), the result is not simply addition of these smart individuals’ talents but a factor of the group multiplied by its size.  10 participants is the equivalent of 100 “lone wolves” operating independently without input from other business owners! Masterminds are even more important [...]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Local Search (SEO)

2023-05-23T11:59:44-04:00

I would like to expand on the topic of artificial intelligence (AI) and dental implants, which we covered in our last post. While artificial intelligence is not intended to replace dentists, it is already changing the way patients search for implant dentists. I recommend trying the chat feature on Bing by searching for "dental implants near [your zip code]." You will notice that the results differ greatly from the traditional Google search, which is increasingly frustrating for patients these days. It is important to also try the same exercise on Google. If your name does not appear in the top positions [...]

Implant Advertising Lead Optimization: It WILL Break (or Make) Your Advertising

2023-05-23T12:02:52-04:00

A number I derived early on back in 2005 when I started Big Case Marketing was tracking the overall close rate from all leads coming from ads for any sales above the $10,000-level of treatment plan. I looked at this both in the practice and in the sales of our advertising/consulting client base. Pre-great recession, we used to have a lot of live, in-person meetings and it was easier to get numbers out of people as it was their homework to bring this data to their sessions.  Additionally, we tracked and knew the stats on each critical step in the sales process. Closing rates for calls to consults, records appointments, etc.  This was [...]

Queen Elizabeth and Dental Implants: A Royal Lesson

2023-05-23T12:03:31-04:00

The world has been enraptured by Queen Elizabeth's recent passing. Is there more at work here than is first apparent? It's been quite a spectacle. Millions "grieving" someone they never met as if they were best friends at the pub. Apple putting her on the home page as if she was Steve Jobs. Former colonies who suffered at the hands of Her Majesty's military sending condolences from afar. Weeks of official government mourning in countries that allow at most one or two days for bereavement of actual family. A well orchestrated (planned years in advance), made for TV PR event. What [...]
