This message needs to be quite long to see if the "read more" portion is working.
But it's not just the economy hurting practices. How dental offices operate as a business can be part of the problem. The days of hanging a shingle and growing automatically are over. Simply relying on habits to get through the day at a certain pace is also hindering productivity.

Let's examine a common claim attachment scenario more closely. You send your claim attachments to your vendor electronically, then, unknown to you, the vendor prints the claim attachments and supporting documents, then packages and sends them to the payor on your behalf. In other words, the vendor simply becomes a middleman in your claims process, adding minimal value while taking your money for the same work you could have done in the first place.
If you think this is an impossibility, that your vendor would expose your data to the security vulnerabilities of standard printing, mailing, and shipping, you should probably know that this sort of thing happens every day. For some organizations, it's standard operating practice.
