Working Interferences Dental Podcast

Episode 240: Dental PPO Negotiations for Dummies

Ok.  Slightly more sober now.

 

We delve into Facebook groups and share advice.  Issue 1: New owner buys practice and will be FFS (fee for service).  Must you credential them?

 

Issue 2: PPO third party negotiator can't get all relevant info?  What to do?

 

Dental influencers.  Do you strain muscles patting yourself on the back?  Is your pity party well attended?

 

Peace.

 

Episode 239: Wake Me Up Before You Go Go

I can explain

Episode 238: How Can I Miss You If You Won’t Leave?

We are back for more, giving Yapi love like we do...  Seriously, don't be dumb.

 

We traveled, but not together.  Ever done a solo trip?

 

Advice today was for 3 anonymous posts.  They really get around.  First: How do you handle a parent that you have never met that brings in long time pediatric patients and makes a scene?

 

If you only work 2 days per week but a new patient calls after hours, who makes the call?  Using a personal cell phone?

 

Adulting sucks.  If a parent tells their kid that they now pay their dental bill, but the kid won't pay, who is responsible?

Episode 237: WI Go To a Nudie Hot Springs

So... are you adventurous?  Really?  Are you SURE...?

 

A weekend getaway becomes more memorable than planned.  Or WAS it?

 

Advice this week: 

 

How do you handle patients that repeatedly no-show for their appointment?  

 

Who do you work for?  The patient, or the person signing your check?

Episode 236: Do dentists need sensitivity training?

Mondays suck.  That's why we release on Wednesday.  But it doesn't fix Monday....

 

We stayed home.  No travel diary.  Boring.  Next episode will have some travel.  Promise.

 

Is it MANDATORY to give time off for a funeral?  Are you a heartless bastard?

 

Does the office have a cell phone?  How do you text?

 

At end of day, does everyone leave together?  If someone stays late, do you ALL stay late?!

 

All this begs the question, why did we apply to dental school?!?

Episode 235:Cologne Street Sh!tter

Some of the best parts of travel is hearing the weirdest stuff from history.  Past generations were as messed up as we are! 

 

 

We made our way to Strasbourg, Luxembourg, and Cologne.  Oh, yeah... for a dental meeting....

Episode 234: Zermatt the Hoople

Tired of dental talk?  Good, because there is NONE during THIS episode.  Lance and Holly talk about their trip on the WAY to their trip to IDS.  This is how NOT to travel.

 

Or the PERFECT way....

Episode 233: Coffee is for Closers

Back into the CE groove!  Do you work IN your business or ON your business?  Me neither.

 

We hit Vegas for a weekend to get better at growing the practice, and since we are becoming more niche, we need a different approach.  And to see Wayne Newton.

 

Viva Las Vegas!

Episode 232: Spanish Fly

Ever taken CE and at the end decided "nope.  NOT doing that..."  Holly made that decision for Lance after their trip to Spain.  

 

Lance took the Zaga Zygoma Implant class in Barcelona with Dr Carlos Aparicio   It was a fantastic experience, and of course, an adventure was worked in as well.  The trip started in Madrid, with a little tapas tasting, a cooking class, and just a general walkabout.  

 

Then a quick train to Barcelona and the learning began!  "You'll shoot your eye out!"

 

Until next time!

Episode 231: Wait... There’s a Podcast?

So.... we didn't forget about you.  "We were on a BREAK....!"

 

Lance and Holly are back, and they fill y'all in on what has been going on.  The why....

 

Lance then talks with Dr Bobbi Stanley and Dr Phil Chahine about their new podcast, The Lucrative Dentist.  They will be hosting a meeting at The Fontainebleau in Miami in May, so be sure to check your schedules, and subscribe to their show.
