Dr. Tom "The Gems Guy" Orent's PPO EXIT Podcast
Managed care insurance and doc-in-the-box DSOs are rapidly turning our dental profession into a commodity business. Low fee DSOs and the infestation of network reduced-fee insurance plans are making it tougher for us (private practice GP dentists) to earn a fair profit. Tougher but not impossible. How can a solo practitioner GP dentist grow and prosper today? Build relationships and referrals by creating an experience your patients will never forget. Deliver service they’ll rave about to their friends and co-workers. Nobody on the planet does service and experience better than Disney. Vance...

info_outline Licensing Board Investigation - EP 013Dr. Tom "The Gems Guy" Orent's PPO EXIT Podcast
My team knew I preferred not to be interrupted while treating a patient. When Izabel buzzed I knew there was something wrong. She began, "Dr. Orent, there's a man here to see you. Says he is an investigator from the Massachusetts State Licensing Board... the Board of Registration in Dentistry. He showed me his badge. Says he wants access... to all of our patient records."
info_outline Monday Morning Sabotage, Forrest Gump - EP 012Dr. Tom "The Gems Guy" Orent's PPO EXIT Podcast
Ever attend a CE course, come back excited... only to be thwarted by that Monday morning back to the same old grind routine? Feels like getting the wind knocked out of you.
info_outlineIt's (beyond) time to fight back. Ask your business staff how much of their VALUABLE TIME IS WASTED by dental insurance carriers deploying DELIBERATE BULLYING TACTICS.
It's beyond time to fight back.
Being put on hold and left there for 20 minutes, 30 minutes, even more... only to be disconnected requiring calling back in and starting all over again. Told they never received claims for which you have PROOF of receipt. Forced to resubmit supporting documents which were already submitted with the original claim. Denied benefits or drastically reduced even though the pre-determination (which you shouldn't have wasted your time sending in the first place) indicated they were going to pay or pay much more.
Calling again and again, asking for supervisors or resubmitting what you've already sent in are INEFFECTIVE means to battle the bullying. But there IS a proven-effective way to get them to listen AND to measurably REDUCE their TACTICS of TORTURE.
When Ben used tip #4, which I reveal in this podcast… when he deployed this Gem with Aetna and United Healthcare while he was managing a large 10 doctor group practice in Arizona, he got a PERSONAL REPLY from the CEO's of Aetna and United Healthcare APOLOGIZING... plus a list of names and contact info for provider relations managers who could and would help him if ever experiencing such terrible bullying tactics again.
