Reason #32
| You Never Install Software or Upgrades
Just the other day this question was raised by an IT guy helping prepare for a Curve Dental workshop:
"Let me know how to install your software and I'll take care of it," he said.
There were several seconds of silence before the IT guy sheepishly said, "Oh, yeah. You guys are Web-based. There's nothing to install... this will be a cake walk."
Think of the time you'll save if you never have to worry about installing upgrades. If you've had to take an evening to install software, you'll never do that again. Spend the time doing something you enjoy, instead.
So how do you access the software? You simply open a browser and enter a username and password. What could be easier?

| Classic Dental Humor
| While I was waiting to see the dentist, a woman came out of the inner office smiling. Nodding to me she said, "Thank goodness my work is completed. I'm so glad to have found a painless dentist. And one who's so gentle and understanding, too."
When seated in the dental chair I related the incident to the doctor. He laughed and explained, "Oh, that was just my mother."

Power Thought: The Practice Source
If your answer is yes, then the question is "Why?" What's your diagnosis?
- Are verbal skills ineffective in motivating patients to keep appointments?
- Do you move patient appointments frequently?
- Do you expect all payments at the time of service?
- Are patients unclear about their dental needs?
To turn the situation around, be honest about what is causing the problem. Problems with internal operations, lackluster systems and not taking control of the schedule are usually the culprit. Once the reason(s) has been determined, develop an action plan to solve it. Be objective. Don't blame. Be solution-oriented.
And finally...what are you going to do with all the extra time you used to spend filling openings in the schedule?

Special Webinar: What Every Doctor Wants from Their Dental Software
|
 | | Dr. Lorne Lavine |
|
January 31, 5:00-6:30 pm PT
Space is Limited!
Dental software was supposed to make managing the practice a simple chore. Doctors and staff were expected to do cartwheels in celebration and weep tears of joy for being given a tool that would free them from endless paperwork and allow them to build wonderful relationships with their patients instead.
But that didn't happen. Instead, doctors have become numb to losing time and money and taking on new hassles and worries they never had before. They've become blind to what they really want from dental software.
In this surprisingly candid Webinar Dr. Lavine will share dental software nightmares that every doctor has experienced and then ask some tough questions. He'll help you identify what you really want from dental software: Five simple needs every doctor wishes they had.
Click here to register.
All attendees will receive 1.5 hours of CE credit.
