Dental Billing Service Us. In House Personnel
Most dental offices hire an in house specialist while others have people who have their hand in all aspects of the business. Even though a dental assistant can answer the phone, it doesn’t necessarily mean that same person is thoroughly versed in insurance billing and regulations. Either way, once an employee is stretched thin, mistakes will inevitably happen. Either way this is a full time employee whose health insurance, 401K, vacation/sick time, workers compensation and FICA needs to be paid.
Employees need to be trained and this wastes valuable time and money. A full time employee still gets paid if they are sick or on vacation and this delays cash flow. Considerations also need to be made to the fact that personnel don’t stay at a practice permanently. Employee turnover can cost you.
When a practice grows and the patient flow increases, there is more billing to take care of. Instead of hiring yet another salaried employee to deal with the boom in business our service adapts to your needs.
