Are PPO plans quietly controlling your practice? In this episode, Ben Tuinei and Naren dive into how PPOs can feel like an addiction—pulling you in with the promise of more patients, but slowly taking away your freedom, your profits, and your peace of mind.

They talk about the real struggles dentists face when trying to drop insurance plans—like fear of losing patients or not staying busy. But they also share how this cycle can be broken. It starts with marketing. When you bring in new patients who aren't tied to PPOs, you start to take back control.

You'll hear a real story of a dentist who doubled her income while working fewer days—just by using smart marketing and letting go of bad PPO contracts one at a time. It's not about quitting everything overnight. It's about building a better path forward, step by step.

If you feel stuck and want a way out, this episode gives you hope, a plan, and the push to start making changes that will free your practice from the grip of insurance.
