HOW WE DO IT
Technology, Expertise & Systems
Our process combines technology with the simple, but effective philosophy of the Golden Rule – Treat others the way you would like to be treated.
Our team will contact patients at the prescribed times via phone, text, and email to alert them of their outstanding balance and how to resolve it.
Software Integration
A key component of the Unique process is automated dataflow, making the process “hands off” for your staff. The office works with our team to define the parameters and once a patient meets the defined criteria, the account would be referred to Unique with the necessary contact information via our HIPAA compliant process.
An example of standard parameters would be patients owing a balance of $25 or more for over 60 days without any pending insurance or pre-established payment plans.
We Know Dental Collections
Drawing from 20 years experience in collections, our team completes a series of four contacts over 45 days encouraging the patient to resolve their outstanding balance and to bring their account to good standing. Depending on the patient response and balance, contacts could include phone calls, text messages, emails, and letters. If no response to these courtesy notices and calls, offices can choose to have Unique move the account into a formal collection process including credit reporting.
Reporting & Results
All patients will be directed to the office to make the payment using your standard payment methods and options. As patients pay, Unique’s software will monitor the balance and cease contact when resolved.
As with all Unique products, transparency is a core component. Your office will have access to our portal showing all contacts plus reported recovery to make sure the work is being completed and there is a positive return on your investment.
