Medical Forum / General / Dentistry / October 2005Dentist Business Model
Hi Im new to the list and to the dentists world of marketing. I work for a dentist who owns 6 dentist units and was wondering what the business model is for such a franchise. For example, what percentage rent, wages, utilities, resources such as anesthesia, listerine, crowns, braces etc. If any one can help please send comments to jvillarl99@yahoo.com >Hi > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] >braces etc. If any one can help please send comments to >jvillarl99@yahoo.com Tough one dude. Everyone has different numbers ...... > Hi > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > wages, utilities, resources such as anesthesia, listerine, crowns, > braces etc. In general, this is probably better discussed on dentaltown.com/ where you will find many who like to hold forth on this sort of thing. (I am not in the biz but if I remember my Business school, the following is true) Your lab bill (crowns etc.) represents items that are marked up and billed to the patient rather than expensed, so therefore lab bills would not normally be considered as part of your operating ratios. Implication: As long as you have lots of patients who all need lot$ of treatment and are all paying their bills, a big lab bill is a GOOD thing! Am I right?

Another impoirtant concept is fixed expense versus variable expense. One receptionist and three docs works better than three receptionists and one doc!
