Episode notes
The $165K Day Revealed
- Andrew Vallo discovered the $165,000 collections day at the end of the day when his COO reported totals.
- The big day occurred Monday, December 29th after shortened holiday weeks and many offices being open for emergencies.
Holiday Weeks Create Concentrated Demand
- Shortened holiday schedules create concentrated demand from patients using end-of-year benefits and more emergencies.
- Being open during those gaps can convert procrastinators into same-day high-value treatments.
Offer Expanded Services Or Hire Experts
- Offer full-arch implant and expanded services or hire a super GP to capture high-ticket cases.
- Invest in training or recruit experienced clinicians to enable single-day high-collection appointments.
