Work-Life Balance
Mastering the Work Life Balancing Act
The notion of work-life balance is difficult for most people to master. And, nowhere is this struggle more prevalent than for dentists. Most dentists are torn between delivering excellent dental care and the demands of running the business side of the practice and finding time for their personal life.This blog begins by examining the challenges of work-life balance from a different perspective which is—a dentist is an entrepreneur who faces realities that every small business person must address. Then it drills down to specific insights for dentists to consider.
Introducing Recare, Referral and Treatment Plan Dashboards
We are excited to announce we’ve added six new Operational dashboards to Curve Business Intelligence. These dashboards give actionable insights into Recare, Referrals and Treatment Plans as part of our growing library of Playbook dashboards.
At Curve, we know how important Recare and Referrals are to maintaining and growing a healthy practice. We also know that once you get patients in the door, the next most important thing is acceptance of the Treatment Plan. We have received requests from many of our customers to prioritize the release of these dashboards and are very excited they are now available with all Curve Hero subscriptions.
By combining the insights of these three new dashboard categories you will be able to answer questions like:
- How much revenue opportunity do I have with my existing patients in unscheduled Recare?
- Is my front office team doing a good job scheduling Recare appointments?
- Are my marketing efforts really working to bring in new, profitable patients?
- How much potential production is sitting in unscheduled treatment plans?
Keep reading to see how Curve Business Intelligence can help you answer those questions and more with just a click of a mouse.
You Don't Need a Crystal Ball to Forecast Your Practice's Future
Have you ever measured how effective the management of your practice collections is? Does your current software system offer a way to even compile that information? Understanding overall scheduled production and recare trends in your practice can be difficult to get out of many practice management systems. If you are looking for new software expecting to get these valuable capabilities included, it is not at all unreasonable.

What's So Scary About Moving to the Cloud?
We’ve already discussed how time-consuming, expensive and risky servers can be. Moving your practice to the cloud seems like the logical option, but a change like that is not always met with enthusiasm.
Dental Billing with Itemized Adjustments Now Available
I'm happy to announce the release of an exciting new feature: the ability to itemized your adjustments before posting them. Until now, invoice adjustments in Curve Hero were automatically applied to the relevant line items and spread out evenly. You did not get the option of allocating amounts to individual line items before saving. We’ve changed that!
The All New Playbook Basic Dental Dashboard
I love nothing more than looking through pages and pages of reports, sorted by all types of variables, collated and compiled together into an alphanumeric nightmare. Did I say love? Typo! I meant loathe. If only there was a way that I could see my important decision-driving data presented to me in some kind of dental dashboard. There has to be a better way!
