    The Truth About Going Out of Network

    YouTube: https://youtube.com/@odysseymgmt You should know a few facts about leaving a network before you make any big decisions. In this solo episode, I share tidbits from my hundreds of strategy calls with dentists and managers on this topic. Typically the call starts out with a focus on how much revenue can be generated and patient reactions. I’m more concerned with level-setting your expectations and taking care of your team members. Touchpoints:  Losing patients will suck Why staying in touch with your patients is a requirement Plan to begin a year ahead of termination Are you ready to not just market but become a marketing machine? Your team can torpedo your out of network dreams Going out of network may not be the answer for you right now. Or this could persuade you to take the leap. I have no skin in the game. I just want you to be successful in your chosen business model. Hope this helps!
