Dr Pay Consulting

Dr Pay Consulting

Your compensation plan shouldn’t be a guessing game. It should be a growth engine.

Dr Pay is the cornerstone of a thriving dental practice or DSO. It’s more than just a paycheck, it’s a strategic tool that impacts provider motivation, practice profitability, and long-term scalability.

Whether your practice uses production-based models, salary structures, or hybrid systems, the right compensation plan must balance fairness for providers with financial sustainability for the business. Without this balance, practices risk high turnover, cash flow strain, or even legal disputes.

Our Dr Pay Consulting services helps design compensation models tailored to your practice’s unique goals. By analyzing financial data, overhead costs, and growth objectives, we can create structures that reward performance while protecting margins. This isn’t just about numbers; it’s about building a system of trust, transparency, and alignment between providers and leadership, which are key ingredients for a thriving, scalable DSO.

How does this work?

We begin with a deep dive into your practice’s financial health, growth objectives, and existing compensation model. This will include a review of your current production metrics, overhead costs, and provider performance to identify gaps or misalignments. From there, we will collaborate with leadership to design a pay structure that balances fairness for doctors with profitability for the practice.

But our work doesn’t stop at design. We'll guide you through seamless implementation, providing tools like staff training, compensation calculators, and progress-tracking dashboards. As your practice evolves, we'll monitor the outcomes and refine the model to adapt to new challenges that may arise. This proactive approach ensures your compensation strategy is a solid contributor to your growth, and not a bottleneck.
