Frequently Asked Questions
As an orthodontist running a private practice, there are several specific accounting considerations you should keep in mind.
- Operational Costs: You need a full understanding of your regular expenses, including staffing costs, office rent, utilities, and equipment maintenance among others. Proper bookkeeping will ensure these are tracked accurately.
- Treatment Pricing: You should be able to accurately account for the costs related to each patient's treatment, factoring in your time, materials used, and overhead costs, to help determine suitable pricing.
- Insurance and Patient Billing: Orthodontic practices often bill insurance companies on behalf of their patients. You'll need a robust system to accurately track these transactions and ensure correct payment.
- Tax Planning: As with any business, it's essential to keep accurate records for all income and expenses. This will not only help you understand your business's financial health but also ensure that you're prepared for tax time.
Consider hiring a professional bookkeeper with experience in healthcare practices to handle these matters, so you can focus on providing your patients with the best orthodontic care.

Nope! All bookkeeping is completed in-house.
Your bookkeeper will be your main point of contact, but at times you might hear from another member of your team. This is usually when your bookkeeper goes on vacation, is sick, or otherwise unavailable.
We handle the bookkeeping for you but sometimes we’ll need your input, especially at year-end. On average, expect to spend 15 minutes each month answering questions for your bookkeeper, or uploading supporting docs.
