Some of the Frequently Asked Questions that people have for us
Prosperident is a team of 25 talented motivated people who understand Dentistry really well and who exist for one purpose - to help protect dentists against Financial crime. One of the things that I take the most pride in is how we have people coming to us sometimes in a very bad place when they realize that the person they trusted the person that they've considered to be a friend isn't. That's emotionally hard. We take these people by the hand we give them comfort, we give them knowledge, and ultimately we help them get to a much better place than they are when they call us. If you are one of those people feeling better starts with calling us, and I'd love to talk to you. We very proudly wear the title of dentistry's embezzlement experts.
What's interesting is many people think that at Prosperident the only thing we focus on is just finding embezzlement. But we are very multifaceted. We offer Owner Proactive Strategies where we look at your business and your practice and look for any areas of weaknesses that may allow you to be compromised for embezzlement or other things to occur. The other thing that we offer is litigation services. that doesn't always focus on exact money missing it also looks at practice cells or other areas that may need to be reviewed in dentistry. We can also come to you as a speaker if you're having an event. We can share our information about the financial integrity and safeguarding your practice and how embezzlement could occur. So we have great offerings in our company you don't just have to have missing money to give us a call.
Every team member that works at Prosperident has been immersed in the dental culture for pretty much their entire career. We have some consultants that work with doctors individually, we have some non-practicing dentists that work with us, and we have people with accounting backgrounds. We all have that commonality of knowing exactly how a dental office is supposed to work.
In the initial meeting that a client has with us, one of the factors that we always take care of is cost. Most of the work that we do is done on a fee that is fixed in advance so the client knows exactly what the cost will be. We also normally offer payment terms so that somebody can spread the payment over some months to make it affordable. There are a few situations where we are not able to comfortably fix a cost in advance.
And in those cases, we bill on an hourly basis to make sure that we're being fair to the client.
Wow, that is always a tough issue. One of the hardest things for any dentist emotionally is the thought that somebody who has the same education, who shares the same code of ethics might be stealing from them. And yet it happens a lot. We have typically around 100 to 120 active cases at any point in time.
So those are all the cases we're working on. And from those, typically eight or 10 involve situations where the suspect is another dentist. If you are in the situation where you suspect, it needs to be handled really carefully and that's where we can help you. We have a group who specialize in this exact problem. I hope you're not in that position, but if you are, call us and we'll walk you through it.
