Whether you’ve been considering affiliation or already made the decision that it’s the right choice for you, there are steps you can take NOW to set you and your practice up for success both financially and operationally to make the transition as easy as possible.
-
Take steps to achieve growth for your practice now
Having a well-established practice demonstrates its value, plus it gives you better leverage when it’s time to negotiate. It also gives you a better foundation for further growth once affiliated with a DSO and a supported practice.
- Keep your books and numbers up to date
Keeping your books updated provides accurate insights into finances and operational metrics that will help DSOs and a supported practice find areas of improvement and streamline the affiliation process. That way, you can focus on what matters to you — your patients.
- Have a capable and skilled team
Ensure your practice is properly staffed, especially with a skilled hygienist. With the additional resources you'll gain by affiliating with a DSO, such as Heartland Dental, and a supported practice, get ready to see your practice flourish.
Choosing to affiliate with Heartland Dental and a supported practice gives you the support of our dedicated non-clinical team for the freedom you’ve been missing to focus on patient care again, as well as give you more time to spend with your family and friends.
