Many dental practices look at credentialing with insurance companies as a way to attract patients, but there are other ways that dental practices can attract and keep their patients. One of those is through membership programs. On today’s episode of Beyond Bitewings, the team welcomes Katie Franklin, Program Director for Smile Advantage.

Smile Advantage helps dental practices implement and run membership programs, and Katie is discussing why every dental practice should consider adding one as a resource for their patients. Not only are membership programs attractive to those who may not have insurance, but Katie has also found that even those with insurance many times take advantage of the program.

Katie and the Edwards & Associates team also discuss what type of typical benefits are offered with a membership program, what goes into implementing a membership program and the costs involved, how to get the whole team on board, and why membership programs don’t make sense in some cases.
