Taking on Corporate Competition and Managed Care Insurance with Dr. Scott Leune
This week on Dentist Freedom Blueprint, we focus on how private dentists who want to remain a boutique practice can be successful in the current business environment.
Solo dentists are dealing with rising corporate competition and a
reduction in reimbursements from managed care. Dr. Scott Leune joins us
today to talk about leveraging the benefits of corporate efficiencies
while thriving in your private practice.
Scott is the CEO of Breakaway Practice,
a dental consulting firm that specializes in creating growth for dental
practices and creating the efficiencies that increase profits. He built
3 successful startup practices in San Antonio by learning from his
mistakes during rapid periods of growth and not being afraid to talk
calculated risks. Over the last 4 years, through the Breakaway Affiliate
Program, Scott has helped build approximately 80 startup practices
nationwide.
Today, Scott shares how private dentists can best position themselves
to leverage the opportunities available while competing against
corporate dentistry conglomerates. Dentists who will thrive need to
understand the trends and develop a plan to operating at maximum
efficiency in a polarized industry.
