Testimonials

“Jan helped us with Dentrix training and took over insurance billing during that training period. She is an expert at insurance billing and collections. Patients are very responsive to her, and she decreased my accounts receivable by half. She gets the job done in a very professional manner. Jan truly has a wealth of knowledge in all aspects of the front office and for us she was a tremendous help in working with insurance companies and collecting on aging accounts. She is a valuable resource and always willing to help, I would highly recommend her services.”

Candace Peterson DMD

“We had the pleasure of working with Ms. Douglas for several months while she deconstructed my accounts receivable into categories of inappropriate data entry, insurance management and ineffective collection policies.

In the end, working remotely, she was able to collect all money owed the practice and taught my remaining staff member sustaining Dentrix skills.  In brief, she gave great support in a most convivial manner.

My only regret was finding her services so late in my career.”

Paul Jensen DMD

“Jan brought to my practice the skills and knowledge that were needed for the smooth transition and continuation of our successful dental practice.  I relied on Jan as I was an absentee owner – hiring associates to work the practice.

Jan trained my staff in communication skills, computer software, appointment scheduling and many other areas.   Her systems and training kept my A/R and outstanding insurance claims down so drastically that even my accountant was impressed.

Jan will be remembered as a friend and confidant. I could not have been successful without her.  Her honesty and integrity are beyond reproach.

She has been involved with and leads as a volunteer – the ODEA (Oregon Dental Executives’ Association).  She has gained invaluable experience about dental offices and their workings and has a vast connection of resources and networking within the dental industry.

I highly recommend Jan to anyone who can use the services of this valuable consultant.”
