The most important idea to get your head around in learning dental accounts receivable, is that less outstanding money is better for the practice.  It is also better for the patient-office relationship.  It will also save you, as the office financial manager, a whole lot of time and stress.

Learning Dental Accounts Receivable:  Payment at The Time Of Service

Payment in full at the time of service is always the preferred payment method.  The more you need to extend in financing options, the more it is going to cost everyone.  So, our treatment presentations and accuracy in financial presentations is our first consideration.

Credit balance management, patient statements, and insurance claim tracking are key elements to consider.   Poor patient account management creates all sorts of problems for dental practices.

A loss of trust is hard to repair with patients.  When patients become angry, they may not pay at all.  And may even leave the practice over a financial mishap.
