dental bookkeeping services bookkeeping for dentists

In the medical field, dental practices hold a unique position, balancing healthcare services with the operational intricacies of running a business. While the core focus remains patient care, administrative duties like bookkeeping cannot be overlooked. This is where Linda Rost’s Better Bookkeepers comes in, offering tailored dental bookkeeping services designed to let dentists do what they do best—care for their patients.

Why Dental Practices Need Specialized Bookkeeping

Dental practices, like any other businesses, have their share of income, expenses, and financial obligations. However, the financial landscape of a dental practice differs in key aspects, such as insurance reimbursements, variable patient costs, and specialized overhead expenses for dental equipment and supplies.

Nailing down these financial complexities requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach to bookkeeping. At Better Bookkeepers, we understand that dentists need specialized bookkeeping services to track their finances accurately. It is for this reason that we extend our range of services to dental bookkeeping, marrying our in-depth remote bookkeeping expertise with the nuanced demands of a dental practice.

Keeping track of your bank transactions is the cornerstone of accurate bookkeeping. We handle bank reconciliations meticulously, adding all transactions into the accounting software for you. This ensures an accurate representation of your cash flow, enabling better financial decisions.

Reconciling Payroll into Dental Departments

Payroll can be complicated in a dental practice, where staff may be divided into various departments like dental hygienists, dental assistants, and administrative staff. Our services include reconciling your payroll into these specific dental departments, ensuring accurate cost allocation.

On-Demand Monthly Financial Reports

Information is power, especially when it comes to your finances. We offer monthly financial reports on demand, including profit and loss statements, balance sheets, and cash flow statements. These reports are essential for assessing the financial health of your dental practice and for planning future investments or expansions.

Practice Overhead Percentage Calculations

Understanding your practice’s overhead percentage gives you a snapshot of your operational efficiency. We calculate this for you, helping you understand how much of your revenue is being consumed by fixed and variable costs, thus helping you identify areas for potential savings.

Overhead Expense Comparison to Peers

One of the unique features of our dental bookkeeping services is the comparison of your overhead expenses to industry peers. This information is invaluable, offering insights into how your practice stacks up against others in the field. It provides a benchmark that can inspire effective strategies to improve operational efficiency.

Overhead Dashboard Access and Support

Our services include providing access to an overhead dashboard that continually updates to reflect your practice’s financial status. This dashboard allows you to track key financial metrics easily and offers a quick view into your practice’s overall financial health.
