What is the EBITDA Leakage Audit?

A forensic revenue analysis tool that benchmarks your dental practice's operational yield against a proprietary 2,500-practice database to locate hidden margin and unscheduled attrition.

How long does the diagnostic take?

Less than 3 minutes. The diagnostic accepts operational estimates — no P&L or financial statements required to establish your initial leakage baseline.

Is my practice data secure?

Yes. All data is transmitted using 256-bit encryption via Netlify's secure form infrastructure. Your information is used strictly for enterprise evaluation and is never shared or sold.

New Patient Acquisition Pipeline

Select the operational standards you can mathematically verify today.

The CPA Audit: We can mathematically prove our exact Cost of Patient Acquisition per channel. The OON Conversion Yield: We actively audit recorded calls to track Out-of-Network conversions. The Frictionless Intake: Digital infrastructure writes directly into our PMS, eliminating manual entry. The Pre-Clinical SOP: We execute a codified protocol guaranteeing >85% conversion from call to chair. The Blind Spot: We cannot objectively verify these metrics and rely on intuition or fragmented reports.

Active Patient Attrition Rate

How accurately do you track the "bucket with a hole in the bottom"?

We strictly measure the exact percentage of active patients without a future appointment (maintained under 15%). We track daily broken appointments, but lack a sanitized view of total active unscheduled patients. Our front desk fills schedule holes reactively but lacks a proactive unscheduled SOP. We have high unscheduled volume and no objective system to quantify or recover the bleed.

Case Presentation Conversion Yield

Measure the delta between diagnosed dentistry and scheduled production.

We track raw dollar conversion ($ Accepted vs $ Presented) and maintain yield above 60%. We track patient acceptance %, but our PMS cannot accurately report raw dollar conversion. We diagnose high-ticket cases frequently but suffer from high "think about it" friction. I rely on intuition to gauge acceptance; our financial handoff SOP is not mathematically tracked.

Hygiene Retention Infrastructure

Select the operational protocols your admin team executes daily.

Reappoint from the Chair SOP: Over 90% of hygiene patients schedule next visit before leaving. The 0–6 Month Audit: We execute a targeted daily outreach list for patients who slipped through. The Automated Safety Net: We rely completely on automated text/email to recover overdue patients. The Operational Void: We have no dedicated, trackable protocol to recover unscheduled hygiene patients.

Associate Diagnostic Drift & Clinical Control

How do you enforce the standard of care across your clinical floor?

We deploy AI diagnostic overlays (Pearl, Overjet) to enforce an objective, machine-verified baseline. We rely on manual chart audits and doctor-led calibration meetings to align associate diagnoses. Associates generally diagnose to their own comfort levels, leading to fragmented production yields. Solo Provider: I am the sole diagnostic engine. (High Key-Man Risk)

Hygiene Department Profitability

Is your hygiene department an asset or a subsidized loss leader?

Asset: Full perio charting on all adults. Perio rate exceeds 30%, Net PPH is optimized. Drift: We perform perio charting, but Perio diagnosis rate sits below the 30% national baseline. Loss Leader: Hygienists primarily perform adult prophys. We frequently miss early periodontal disease. Blind Spot: I do not regularly audit our Perio percentage or hygiene Net Production Per Hour.

This represents a critical failure point in your financial architecture. Stop relying on intuition. Securing this single operational lever will permanently recapture the majority of your bleeding margin.

Enterprise Value Destruction

This leakage does not just hurt monthly cash flow; it permanently suppresses your EBITDA. At a conservative 5x market multiple, this operational blindness is actively destroying — of your practice's Enterprise Value.
