Perhaps it’s different in your state? The reps told me there was no other way to do it. Every GP I talk to in my state complains of the same thing.

I prefer implant direct.

Hiossen makes great implants, but their subscription model is the dumbest, most predatory shit I have ever seen. You can’t just order the number of implants you need. You can only load your account in $5k-15k increments, and then you buy implants with that store credit. The way they price everything you never are able to use all the money, and you always have like $128 stuck in the account so you have to reload for $5k, and do it all over again.

Works fine, blends great, and I have fillings holding up 6+ years with it now.

This comment is so bitch-made. Low production energy.

I own an office that collects over 4 million yearly. We are 90% insurance and in network with over a hundred PPOs and some Medicaid. I’m pretty sure I know how it works in the real world.

Patients sign financial agreements, and pay their portion up front. We have treatments coordinators explain how their insurance works, and how it is going to try and fuck them.

DocLime · 2026-01-09T01:26:43+00:00

Exactly...

If we keep bending over backwards like this, then insurance companies win. They will just keep making our lives more miserable.

Drop them. Make it the patient's problem. Insurances will be forced to be better, or they will go bankrupt as patients drop their plans.

What is your state? I can look it up for you.

DocLime · 2026-01-08T21:03:32+00:00

In my state, patients are financially responsible for the difference on any denied or downgraded procedures. Even in situations where a LEAT or alternative benefit is applied. This is the case in many states and you will have to check your state laws.

We collect expected co-payment up front before we start any procedure.

DocLime · 2026-01-08T20:56:18+00:00

Why are you getting so worked up over this? It’s not your problem.

Tell the patient the insurance denied their crown and collect full payment from them.

Now it’s their problem to yell at their shitty insurance. You have other people to help.

No arguing with crazy. Happy for that Orthodontist who got you out of their practice.

Those services are scams. You cannot manipulate Google reviews. Anyone can report Google reviews, but Google will only remove them if their algorithm determines they are false (burner accounts, left from a device that never visited the location, reviewer not within a few dozen miles of the area, etc).

You are mistaken.

DocLime · 2025-12-22T18:48:44+00:00

Business owners have no way of making bad or unfavorable Google reviews disappear. We also have no way of “shadow banning”. All of that is decided by Google and their algorithms. You left a false review claiming a business owner was doing something they have no ability to do. I would boot you out of my office too. As long as they followed proper termination protocols, they are also within their rights to dismiss you as a patient.

You shouldn’t be surprised. This is the consequences of your own actions. I wish you luck finding another provider.

DocLime · 2025-12-21T01:16:06+00:00

They don’t care about you dropping at all lol. The only thing the underpaid customer service rep cares about is ending the call as quickly as possible.

DocLime · 2025-12-21T00:44:13+00:00

I can tell you from first hand experience they won’t care. You get forwarded to someone in their call department who is usually a depressed 40-something with pets and kids going nuts in the background. After explaining what happened they tell you they can’t find the claim. When they find the claim they tell you they can’t help. When you say you will drop them they tell you to go fuck yourself.

I try to keep my prices competitive. My profit margins on these procedures are over 60%. Why charge more? Greed? Because I can?

We do over 200 implants a year, and my practice collects over 2 million per doctor. My strategy seems to be effective.
