Dental Elite can help

  Posted by: Dental Design      23rd December 2018

Recently, it was announced that the Unit of Orthodontic Activity (UOA) benchmark price is going to be decreased in the North to accommodate for the lower cost of living, wages and operating costs. However, after surveying the numbers, we found that it is not in fact cheaper to run a dental practice in the North, mainly due to staff expenses as a result of recruitment difficulties.

As such, if the UOA rate is reduced but the pay rate is kept the same, then practices could potentially be even more out of pocket. This shows just how competitive the market now is.

If you need help recruiting associates to your practice, or want to know how your practice might be affected, get in touch with the Dental Elite team.
