PPO Participation

Dental Code Advisor Podcast

Dr. Greg Grobmyer speaks with Penny Reed, Practice Booster CEO, about PPO Participation. Learn how to evaluate plans, the concept of the dollar value per chair hour, when you should join, when you should exit, and what to do if you do decide to leave a plan.

Penny Reed served as CEO of Practice Booster from Oct 2021 – Sep 2022 and has served as the Chief Growth Officer for eAssist Dental Solutions since Oct 2022.

PPO Participation is great for some practices and an anchor for others. Participation is helpful when practices need to grow, as it serves as a form of advertising to get patients in the door. At a certain point, established practices with sufficient patient numbers may choose to drop certain plans in order to keep a larger percentage of production and make more while seeing fewer patients overall. In this podcast, Penny Reed provides insight into how to determine when you should consider making this change and which plan can be dropped, as well as considerations on the process of exiting the plan. Listen in to learn more about how your practice could benefit from being choosy in plan participation.
