Build a Stronger Independent Practice

DentalLink IPA membership gives independent dentists access to the network, expertise, resources, and economic opportunities designed to help quality practices thrive without giving up ownership.

Protecting the financial integrity of quality care

One independent practice can have limited leverage when navigating PPO reimbursement and payer relationships. DentalLink IPA creates an organized IPA network designed to provide participating practices with greater collective strength and access to specialized reimbursement expertise.

Members may gain access to opportunities and support involving PPO fee schedules, reimbursement strategy, insurance participation, credentialing, recredentialing, contract evaluation, and payer opportunities. Every practice maintains complete independence regarding its contracting decisions, fee structures, and participation choices.
