Recare System effectiveness is calculated based on the
number of active patients in the practice.
If a practice has 2000 active patients, the calculation can be made:
- 2000 active patients; each to be recalled every 6 months
- 2000 active patients ÷ 6 months = 333 Recares/month for 100% effective system
- 175 Recares/month actual average
- 175 Recares ÷ 333 = 53% effective system
Minimum
goal = 70% - 80% effective system. Using
75% effectiveness rate as an average
goal:
- 2000 active patients x .75 = 1500 patients
- 1500 patients ÷ 6 months = 250 Recares/month with 75% effective system
- 250 Recares – 175 (actual average/month) = 75 additional Recares/month
So---what difference does it make if 75 additional Recare
patients are seen each month? First, you
and your staff assure better oral health for more patients. From the first appointment, it is most important
to educate patients to the fact that the focus of your care, once needed
restorative work is completed, is to help them stay healthy, free of dental
disease through routine hygiene appointments.
A second factor to consider is increased production. Multiply your Recare fee by the monthly goal
of 75 additional Recares to calculate the increased production per month. The dramatic monetary effect a 75% effective
Recare system will have on your annual income is stunning. You are looking at a WIN for patients and a WIN
for your practice.
