This episode topic is a question that almost all the dentists on the journey of reducing insurance dependency have. This is because dentists tend to think that they have to be 100% FFS to be successful. However, success can be measured in different ways. For example, when you give away the average contracted fees, anything you do to reduce that amount makes your practice successful. Gary Takacs answers this question and also shares tips on how to make your journey successful!
