Case Study: Dental Practice
A dental practice in Arizona came to us with $385,000 in debt including equipment financing of $165,000, two MCAs totaling $120,000, and working capital debt of $100,000. Insurance delays had created a severe cash flow crisis.
We restructured equipment financing to reduce payments by 30%, settled both MCAs for $42,000 total, and implemented revenue cycle improvements that accelerated insurance collections by 18 days. The practice is now profitable and expanding.
