Dr Udell Webb has access to the only real dental UCR or dental fees, or dental fee list, or dental fee analyzer; whatever you prefer. Learn why it matters to you. This page is a quick read, and you'll know more about your fees than ever before!

         
 

The UCR Table or Dental Fees Listing or even Dental Fee Analyzer, as some prefer, has made the biggest change in dentistry of the last decade. Thousands of office use this dependable, reliable, authentic dental fee information to set a fair fee in their office. It's the real thing; not "our" fee list and not a survey. (Learn why that matters below) Set your dental fees with confidence, using the proven source. This may be the most crucial of the kits for your financial health.

Why this one versus the others? That is a great question, I'll give you a great ....and straight..... answer. All of the insurance companies want to compare dental fees, just like you do. They can't either, because it would be restriction of trade. So, they formed an association. An association that isn't an insurance company. That association collects all the dental insurance claims data in the US. The association then collates all of the dental fees, sorts by zip area (see below) and by percentile (see below). The insurance companies pay millions of dollars per year for this dental/medical fee data. The dental fee data is per zip, per code, per percentile and the answer is to the penny. Anyone, that's anyone, who uses a "multiplier" doesn't have the actual table. Anyone that uses a dental fee survey, including the American Dental Association, doesn't have the real data from the sole source. So, this is the ONLY one based on all the real claims, submitted by real doctors, in your real zip area, for services they really did and the dental fees listed are the dental fees they really submitted. The owner of this data makes millions and millions yearly from selling the data to the big insurance companies. Why don't they want to sell it to you for $30/$90? Well, they really don't want to sell it to you very badly at all. And the insurance companies don't want them to sell it to you. So, from them to you..."the fee is $299.99." It's a bargain, to get the actual dental fees being charged and paid in your neighborhood. Get yours, and establish your fees, while we still can.


"Adding TENS of THOUSANDS of Dollars in Extra PURE PROFIT Without Ever Lifting a Finger!"

by Dr. Tom "The Gems Guy" Orent
www.GemsInsidersCircle.com


"MASSIVE PROFITABILITY is the ELUSIVE 'Holy Grail' of dental practice.
  We strive (as we should) to perfect our clinical skills, and yet our business sense most often falls short. 
At age 36 I came within 3 short (scary) days of filing bankruptcy. By age 46 I'd socked away more than enough wealth from practice that I was able to sell both of my practices and could have retired. For good.  One of the key strategies I employed and now recommend to my clients is to always know exactly where your prices fall with respect to the other guys in your town.


Pricing GEM #1:
"the Deadly Middle".  Setting your fees anywhere in the middle is one of the most common and costly business mistakes you can make.  Folks will go to the cheapest if they are looking simply to save a buck.  TOUGH way to make a living... but I suppose if your ONLY goal were to increase patient flow...

Then there are folks who will go to those at the TOP of the price scale 'cause they're looking for the BEST QUALITY.  No, top price doesn't guarantee the quality of your dentistry.  But the public's perception assumes it's so! (NOTE:  Even if using top pricing as a strategy, be sure to keep new patient exam, and recall exam, x-rays and prophies no higher than the 80th percentile of your neighborhood!)


Pricing GEM #2: "Equilibrate Your Fees". 
Regardless of what percentile you choose to follow, if you don't "internally equilibrate" your fees, you're FLUSHING TENS of THOUSANDS of DOLLARS down the toilet year in and year out.  Let's say you're comfortable e.g. with being at the 88th percentile.  If you don't reexamine how every one of your fees relates to your local colleagues' it's very likely you'll "think" you're at the 88th but end up with one or two KEY services SUBSTANTIALLY UNDER PRICED for NO REASON! E.g., if your crown and bridge were accidentally at the 78th percentile, 10% lower than you intended, you might be
losing 75.00 for EVERY inlay, onlay, crown and bridge unit you do.  Let's say you prepped 15 units (of all types) each week, or 750 per year...
your 10% error translates into a $56,250.00 hemorrhage each year!

One of the best ANNUAL investments I made for my practices was Dr. Dell Webb's Dental UCR Fee Analyzer Kit. It's one of the FIRST and most "Slam Dunk" Gems I URGE with coaching clients to grab!  

And since your patients really have no clue exactly when (or usually even how much!) you've raised your fees, I invented the "Extra Year of Profit" strategy... a GEM which will LITERALLY pay you ONE WHOLE EXTRA YEAR's FEE  INCREASE PROFITS once every six years!  How's it work?  Simple.  Raise your fees every 10 months, instead of once a year... you'll advance by 2 extra months for each increase.  After about 6 years you'll have INVISIBLY sneaked in ONE MORE YEAR's FEE increase!

Here's a quick test to see if you need the real dental fees for your area.. If you don't get a note with every insurance check that says you charged too much, what do you know about your fees? Your dental fees are LOWER than the dental insurance coverage purchased by your patient!

Hi Del,
terrific to hear from you.  I'm always recommending your stuff (love it!) to my clients.  I know that many of them have purchased at least the zip code fee schedule books, and others somewhat more comprehensive products/packages.
Thanks for your continuing massive contributions dentistry.
warm regards,
tom

Still more...Percentiles: The insurance companies all use this same dental fee (UCR) table. How do we get different checks then? Each of the insurance companies sells different policies at different percentiles. The different percentiles carry different fees. Percentile is not the same as percentage, remember. Not to worry, they're in dental the fee analyzer. Just remember, the 80th percentile is the most commonly sold by the insurance salesperson to the employer. Use it as your benchmark. There is much more information, if you want to know how to "build the watch". That information is part of the UCR Myths and Magic Kit. That's another reason that M&M kit requires two audio-CDs. If you just want the quick-start system - remember, use the 80th  percentile column. BTW-specialists use the 95th.

Zip Code Area: A zip area is the first three digits of your zip area. The actuaries want a large enough sample size, so that is it. That could be one block in LA or NYC. No one, no insurance company, breaks it down smaller than that, geographically.

PS. Your contract with Delta Dental Insurance does not require you to charge all patients your reduced Delta fees! You can and should use your non-discounted dental fees for your non-Delta patients. Remember, you gave Delta a huge discount in order to refer patients to you. Your regular dental fees should not be as low as your discounted fees. See the 100% Collections link at the bottom of this page.

Compared to what? If it's true that you are charging less than the insurance companies would pay,  then you are losing more than the price of the UCR table every day. Like perio, the people who need it the most, are the ones who think they can least afford it. Simple math: divide the dental fee table investment, $299, by the amount you undercharged in a year. Or, the other view: a few dollars more, times your common procedures, equals thousands more for the office. Which code, if you changed the fee, would pay your house off with the difference in the fee? If not now, when?
