People might complain about the visits and the prices but the pain relief from an impacted tooth is huge. The confidence lift from a beaming smile is immeasurable. You make a big difference in the lives of your patients. Yet the negative stereotypes persist. It is the same with insurance. Without it, the business world would grind to a halt. Insurance spreads the cost if something goes wrong. It is a cost too high for individual businesses to bear alone. Because things do go wrong, and we live in a compliance obsessed and litigious world. However, for many it is a grudge purchase. Most dentists leave it to the last moment. Often without understanding what they are really buying. And it always seems to be motivated by price, ignoring the adage, ‘cheap is expensive’. Announcing a new better way to protect your business and your reputation This leaves dentists with large, unexpected bills when things do go wrong. And in the case of a cyber-crime the impact on your reputation can be bad. The high cost of the wrong supplier Direct insurers will only ask the questions that sell their products. Lazy brokers have a bigger range of products and might ask a few more questions. But the insurance industry is a low margin one. Lazy brokers make their money by making the transaction as fast and easy as possible. And this, ironically, suits most people. They view insurance as a necessary evil and hope they will be OK if things go wrong – which is unlikely.
