The Real Cost of Dental Management Software
In any kind and size of dental practice, management software always comes in handy. The technology,
however, doesn't come cheap, and even the most basic of dental billing software applications can set
you back a lot of money. But just how much is a lot?
Before you go out and commit to any one software package, it's important to have a very realistic idea
of how much the whole step will cost you. Not only will having a price range in mind give you a baseline
price for reference, but it'll also help you compare different offers side by side. In the end, that
information will help you make the right decision based on your needs and your budget.
Common Pricing Schemes
No single pricing scheme exists for the dental management software industry. Different providers and
software publishers will have different ways of charging you for their goods and services.
The most common is the one-time payment scheme where you basically pay for the software itself.
Once you've paid for a certain number of installations, it's up to you to decide where and how to use the
software. It's a relatively cost-effective pricing scheme, and it's particularly advantageous to you if
you're planning to implement the software for the long haul.
A less common but still in-use method is the subscription pricing plan. On top of a one-time setup cost,
you have to pay a monthly or annual fee. Companies that price their dental practice management
software with subscriptions usually pair the software product with an additional service like a web-
based client end or real-time backups. This is an option to consider if you're implementing in the short
run, or if you like the extras.
What Can Affect The Price?
Don't think that just because the manufacturer published a basic price means that that's all you'll be
paying. In most cases, you'll get charged additional fees and one-time charges, so expect your first bill to
be way above the basic published rate. Many other factors and items can actually drive the bill sky-high,
so you'd best be warned about them before you see the final invoice.
It's often the 'startup,' 'setup' or 'one-time' fees that can really drive up the final amount. These charges
are for things like equipment fees, documentation and training fees. Training fees can be especially
costly because the training sessions are usually conducted one-on-one, and you get charged on a per-
hour or per-session basis. It can get pretty hefty once you add everything up.
How Much Should You Prepare?
Depending on the company, the software and the pricing scheme, you should prepare anywhere from at
least $1,000 to $11,000. If you have a small clinic and just a few people will use the dental management
software, as little as $900 can get you a software package. On the other end of the spectrum, a multi-
branch clinic with dozens of people should prepare at least $9,000. $2,000 is usually enough for an
average, medium-sized clinic.
It's only natural for you to want the best for your dental practice. Management software is a critical
element if you really want to improve your office's operations, but you'll have to brace yourself for the
price of the best dental management software. In this market, you get what you pay for.

The Real Cost of Dental Management Software

  • 1. The Real Cost of Dental Management Software In any kind and size of dental practice, management software always comes in handy. The technology, however, doesn't come cheap, and even the most basic of dental billing software applications can set you back a lot of money. But just how much is a lot?

It can get pretty hefty once you add everything up. How Much Should You Prepare? Depending on the company, the software and the pricing scheme, you should prepare anywhere from at least $1,000 to $11,000. If you have a small clinic and just a few people will use the dental management software, as little as $900 can get you a software package. On the other end of the spectrum, a multi- branch clinic with dozens of people should prepare at least $9,000. $2,000 is usually enough for an average, medium-sized clinic. It's only natural for you to want the best for your dental practice. Management software is a critical element if you really want to improve your office's operations, but you'll have to brace yourself for the price of the best dental management software. In this market, you get what you pay for. Source: http://ezinearticles.com/?The-Real-Cost-of-Dental-Management- Software&id=1771540
