The ADA announced it's pulling back support for DSOs. The internet lost its mind. Kyle and Martin didn't.
In this episode, Dr. Kyle Stanley and Dr. Martin Mendelson break down what the ADA's shift actually means — and what it doesn't. The ADA is a for-profit business. DSOs aren't all created equal. And dental insurance is a defined benefit plan, not insurance. We've done a terrible job letting people call it otherwise.
But here's what really gets Kyle fired up: dentists who complain about insurance reimbursements while staying in network. A dentist in Fresno went out of network, lost 50% of his patients, and now takes home 20% more. Do the math before you say you can't.
The real message: stop spending energy on things you can't control. Don't like the ADA? Cancel your membership. Hate your reimbursements? Drop the plan. Dentistry has more models, niches, and paths than almost any profession out there. Pick one and go.
Complaining on the internet is not a strategy.
