Every year, I attend Converge, the annual conference of the National Association of Dental Plans (NADP). It's where I explore the latest issues and challenges faced by carriers and providers. I've watched the evolving partnerships between carriers and DSOs and observed the increase in network leasing concerns, I wanted to share my observations with you. I listened to compliance updates, discussed the expanding role of Medicare Advantage, and other issues shaping the future of dental coverage. What am I sharing? My thoughts on the amount of audits and fraud in our industry. Are you at risk? Multi-factor authentication is becoming a priority for both small practices and large DSOs. Plus, I'll highlight the questions to ask before outsourcing billing or revenue cycle management in today's third-party–driven market. Let me know if you like this kind of reporting. It was a lot more fun than I expected!  Resources & Links: NADP – The National Association of Dental Plans, representing dental insurers and advocating for better dental benefits. https://www.nadp.org/ Unify Dental – A platform helping DSOs and practices streamline operations and improve efficiency. https://www.unify.dental/ Cotiviti – A leading analytics and payment accuracy company serving healthcare and dental organizations. https://www.cotiviti.com/ Fluent Dental – A technology-driven solution for simplifying dental revenue cycle management. https://fluent.dental/ Connect with Teresa   Website: https://www.odysseymgmt.com/ Email: teresa@odysseymgmt.com Instagram: treeduncan Facebook: Odyssey Management Dental Speaking & Consulting LinkedIn: Teresa Duncan, MS   ------------- Beyond the Operatory Career Workshop: Have you ever wondered what career opportunities in dentistry exist beyond clinical care?

How Shadowbox evolved it's ICP from desperate labs to health systems with 500-1,000 community providers | Gregory Stein

Category Visionaries

Play Episode Listen Later Oct 1, 2025 23:42


Healthcare providers waste $950 billion annually on manual workarounds caused by fragmented EHR systems and integration costs that don't scale. Shadowbox has developed a patented browser technology that functions as an API, enabling instant EHR data access without traditional integration expenses. In this episode of Category Visionaries, we sat down with Gregory Stein, CEO of Shadowbox, to dissect how the company evolved from serving desperate lab diagnostics customers to building strategic partnerships with established healthcare IT players like HC1 to reach health systems.   Topics Discussed: How the 21st Century Cures Act information blocking provisions remain largely unenforced, allowing EHR vendors to maintain data monopolies through integration fees Shadowbox's technical architecture: a white-labeled browser that accesses the document object model and API endpoints to extract HIPAA-compliant data without custom integrations Market entry strategy—targeting financially distressed lab diagnostics providers who couldn't afford traditional integration costs The HC1 partnership model: splitting the market by use case rather than geography, with HL7/API integrations going to HC1 and rapid, low-cost deployments going to Shadowbox Sequential interoperability capabilities that enable multiple vendor touchpoints (prior authorization, eligibility verification, billing) from a single data extraction   GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Target customers facing existential financial pressure, not optimal market conditions: Shadowbox entered through lab diagnostics—a commoditized, low-margin segment hemorrhaging money where providers faced $5K-$50K integration costs per connection taking 3-6 months. Greg acknowledged labs are "the redheaded stepchild of healthcare" but their desperation made them willing to pilot unproven technology. The lesson: segments with severe unit economics problems become early adopter pools because status quo costs exceed perceived risk of new vendors. Build a partnerships function before you have market leverage: Shadowbox hired a partnerships-focused employee early to cultivate relationships with RCM vendors and lab information system providers already selling to target customers. Rather than waiting for customer traction to attract partners, they used partnerships to generate initial traction. Greg emphasized healthcare adoption requires credible references—partnerships provide instant credibility entrepreneurs can't buy. Map your ecosystem's existing vendor relationships and pursue co-sell arrangements before achieving meaningful ARR. Use early customer feedback to migrate upmarket, not pivot laterally: Shadowbox started with labs, expanded to imaging centers, but their true ICP emerged as health systems with 500-1,000 community providers on disparate EHRs where traditional integration economics break down. Greg noted: "health systems that have major outreach programs where it doesn't pencil out to have them on their EPIC system." The migration path moved from small, desperate customers toward larger organizations facing the same core problem at scale. Don't mistake initial ICP for ultimate ICP—use early segments as beachheads to validate technology before pursuing customers with better economics. Partner with horizontal competitors when you solve orthogonal use cases: The HC1 deal splits the interoperability market—structured, predictable integrations go to HC1's traditional approach while rapid deployments to fragmented provider networks go to Shadowbox. This isn't channel partnership but market segmentation by use case economics. Greg explained they bring "something complementary to and in some ways competitive" but combined create offerings competitors can't match. Evaluate whether your "competitors" actually serve different jobs-to-be-done within the same category, then structure partnerships around use case delineation rather than territorial splits. Leverage policy expertise as product moat in regulated markets: Greg's Capitol Hill background enabled Shadowbox to support the Coalition for Innovative Lab Testing's successful lawsuit blocking FDA regulation of lab-developed tests—directly protecting their customers' business models. This wasn't marketing but strategic positioning that demonstrates commitment beyond vendor relationships. In heavily regulated industries, founders with policy expertise or advisors who can shape regulatory outcomes create defensibility that pure technology cannot. Consider how industry advocacy amplifies customer loyalty while potentially expanding TAM through favorable regulatory changes.   //   Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co   //   Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Revenue cycle management in skilled nursing is evolving beyond billing and collections. The future is about building trust and transparency at every step: providers knowing they're reimbursed accurately, families understanding their bills, and payers having accountability. When that happens, providers are better equipped to sustain financial health, staff are freed from administrative burdens, and families gain confidence in the care their loved ones receive. In this episode, we take a 360-degree look at how technology is driving this shift and what a more balanced RCM future means for skilled nursing.

In this episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, Jerry sits down with Jason Wambold, MSPT and VP of Operations at OnusOne, to tackle one of the most persistent and challenging issues in physical therapy: clinician compensation.Jason shares his personal story of nearly leaving the PT profession due to crippling student debt and a compensation model that didn't reflect his value. This experience led him to co-found OnusOne, a company revolutionizing how rehab professionals get paid by creating transparency and aligning incentives between practice owners and their clinical staff.Jerry and Jason dive deep into the flaws of traditional salary and hourly pay models, explaining how they often suppress earnings and create misaligned expectations. They discuss how the OnusOne software platform empowers practice owners to build customizable, data-driven compensation models that allow therapists to see the direct connection between their work and their paycheck.Key Takeaways:• The Transparency Problem: Most therapists don't understand the link between the revenue they generate and their compensation, a fundamental disconnect unique to physical therapy compared to other healthcare professions.• Unlock Earning Potential: Moving to a variable compensation model allows clinicians to directly control their income, giving them a clear path to achieve their financial goals without having to ask for a raise.• A Powerful Hiring & Retention Tool: Implementing a system like OnusOne is a significant differentiator in the interview process, allowing owners to show candidates exactly how they can achieve their desired salary.• The Calibration Point: The success of any model hinges on the owner first understanding their business's financial "zero point"—the minimum revenue needed to cover all expenses—before building plans for their team.• Change Management is Key: Successfully transitioning a team requires a long-game approach, offering choice (including a safe, 100% salary option), and comprehensively testing models to build and maintain trust.

Seth shares his unique perspective from his "Jerk Store" series on LinkedIn, where he breaks down bad sales outreach, and explains how his firm uses "searchless marketing" to target ideal patients through demographics and psychographics.The conversation is a masterclass in why treating your front desk as a revenue-generating sales center, not just a logistics hub, is the key to sustainable growth. Jerry and Seth discuss the downstream chaos of poor lead handling, the danger of counting leads as revenue, and why the best marketing in the world fails without a system to convert interest into arrived, paying patients.Key Takeaways:• Marketing and Sales are a Partnership, Not the Same Thing: Effective marketing generates awareness, but a dedicated sales process is required to convert that interest into scheduled appointments. They must work in tandem, with data flowing back from sales to inform and improve marketing efforts.• Your Front Desk is Your Sales Engine: Stop viewing your front desk team as merely schedulers. Empower them with the time, training, and systems to have meaningful conversations, set proper expectations, and gather crucial data on every lead—whether they schedule or not.• Track Everything to Stop Guessing: You cannot improve what you do not measure. Implementing a simple lead tracker is essential to understand where your best patients come from, identify leaks in your funnel, and make data-driven decisions instead of emotional ones.• Better Leads Lead to Better Conversions: The ultimate way to improve conversion rates is to attract higher-quality, better-fitting leads through targeted marketing. This reduces pressure on the sales team and creates a more efficient and profitable practice.• Intentionality Creates Patient Success: Every patient touchpoint—from the first phone call and the check-in process to the clinical experience and billing—must be intentionally designed. Reverse-engineering the ideal patient journey ensures a seamless, professional experience that builds trust and loyalty.Tune in for an honest, no-fluff conversation filled with actionable strategies to align your marketing, sales, and operations to serve more patients and build a healthier business.

More management and insurance knowledge in my newsletter: https://www.odysseymgmt.com/newsletter   Did you know a single ransomware attack can cost a dental office six figures or shut it down entirely? A small dental practice is an ideal target for a cyberattack easy to overlook, often underprotected, and rich with valuable patient data. Teresa Pichay (returning guest!) and Katie Fox from the California Dental Association joined me for a scary session. They shared how hackers use phishing emails, malware, and AI-powered scams to break into dental systems, steal information, and demand high ransoms. Many in dentistry assume they're too small to attract hackers, but that very assumption makes them more vulnerable to hacking attempts. Personal devices, outdated software, and unsecured networks create easy entry points. Even if the breach occurs through a third-party vendor, the dental office is still held responsible. Without strong cybersecurity protocols, HIPAA compliance, and safeguards in place, practices risk data exposure on the dark web or deep web, legal trouble, and costly service disruptions. Cyber liability insurance can help but prevention through secured systems, trained staff, and regular risk assessments is the only reliable defense in an AI-driven threat landscape.

In this timely episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, host Jerry Durham is joined by two powerhouse voices in healthcare: Angela Diaz, PT, VP of Market Development at TailorCare, and Dana Strauss, PT, DPT, a physical therapist turned health policy strategist.Recorded in the wake of CMS's monumental 2025 Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule, this conversation is a masterclass in translating complex policy into actionable business strategy. Jerry, Angela, and Dana dissect the new regulations and mandatory models, moving beyond the headlines of reimbursement cuts to uncover the significant opportunities hidden within for forward-thinking physical therapy practices.They break down the new ambulatory specialty model for low back pain, the WISER model aimed at reducing wasteful spending, and the TEAM model holding hospitals accountable for 30-day post-discharge care. The discussion provides a clear roadmap for PTs to pivot from being siloed service providers to becoming indispensable, collaborative partners in a value-based care system.Key Takeaways:• Why the conversion factor is only a small piece of the reimbursement puzzle and how PTs/OTs were inadvertently grouped with specialists, leading to a potential negative impact.• How to leverage data to demonstrate your value to physicians and health systems participating in new mandatory models (like the ambulatory specialty model for low back pain), making you a sought-after partner instead of an ancillary service.• The critical difference between capitation and true value-based care, and why attaching your payment to quality outcomes is the only sustainable path forward.• A practical strategy for engaging referring physicians by focusing on their pain points and asking, "What can I do to help you be successful in this new model?"• Why the future of PT isn't about doing less but about providing the right care at the right time—including phone calls, remote monitoring, and self-care guidance—to improve outcomes and reduce the total cost of care for a population.Tune in for an empowering conversation that will change your perspective from one of uncertainty to one of opportunity, proving that by focusing on collaboration and patient outcomes, you can future-proof your practice and thrive in the new landscape of healthcare.

If your practice's collections aren't where they should be, it might not be because of fewer patients—it could be because your revenue is trapped in insurance company limbo. The truth? Without a rock-solid revenue cycle management (RCM) process, you're leaving money on the table… and adding stress to your team. In this episode of the Raving Patients Podcast, I sit down with Shreyas Parab, co-founder and CEO of Daydream, to explore how AI can revolutionize dental billing without removing the human expertise that keeps claims moving. Shreyas shares his unique perspective—shaped by growing up in his mother's small Medicaid dental practice—on why dental billing is a hidden bottleneck for many offices and how automating key steps can unlock both revenue and time. We break down what “human-in-the-loop” AI really means, how to verify insurance more efficiently, and why complete transparency in billing services is non-negotiable for cash flow health. We also dig into the broader role of AI in dentistry—what's working now, where the technology still falls short, and the untapped opportunities that could transform patient communication and education in the near future. Shreyas provides real-world examples of practices that have recovered hundreds of thousands in aged receivables by combining AI-driven workflows with experienced billers, and why this hybrid approach outperforms both in-house teams and traditional billing agencies. Whether you're currently outsourcing, doing billing in-house, or simply curious about what's possible, this conversation will give you the tools to evaluate your RCM strategy and future-proof your practice against the growing complexity of insurance reimbursement. Here are the interesting stuff we talked about in this episode: Automating bottlenecks works best with expert oversight. Pure AI isn't ready to replace billers—but it can triple their efficiency. Transparency is key. If you can't see exactly what's happening with your claims, you can't fix revenue leaks. Growth magnifies billing challenges. Expanding operatories, adding associates, or buying a new practice will strain in-house billing unless processes scale. Patient communication is an untapped AI opportunity. Future tools could educate patients before appointments, improving case acceptance and freeing up clinical time.   Key Takeaways 00:43 Introduction and Event Announcement 02:23 Meet Shreyas Parab: The Vision Behind Daydream 04:30 The Journey from Dental Practice to AI Solutions 05:59 Understanding the Burden of Dental Billing 07:45 The Role of AI in Automating Dental Billing 10:00 Why Automation Over Software Tools? 13:00 Human-AI Collaboration in Dental Billing 14:33 Services Offered by Daydream 15:46 AI-Driven Processes in Dental Billing 17:47 Pain Points with Traditional Billing Agencies 21:12 Identifying Candidates for Daydream's Services 23:22 Exploring AI's Impact on the Dental Industry 24:00 The Future of AI in Dentistry 28:44 AI's Role in Patient Education and Communication 30:38 Limitations of AI in Dental Practices 33:06 Understanding AI's Writing Patterns 38:19 Innovative Marketing Strategies in Dental Practices   — Connect with Shreyas Learn more about Daydream and schedule a demo at daydream.dental.   — Learn proven dental marketing strategies and online reputation management techniques at DrLenTau.com.

Automating medical coding presents significant challenges due to the intricate nature of health information management, particularly medical records, which form the bedrock of healthcare coding and billing. Protected Health Information (PHI) exists in various formats, including handwritten notes, patient intake forms, and dictated lab reports. This lack of standardization poses a considerable hurdle for AI systems.Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) professionals—such as coders, billers, and auditors—possess the contextual understanding necessary to interpret and extract crucial information from diverse and sometimes illegible records. The complexity of abstracting documentation is further compounded by ambiguous acronyms, localized jargon, and specialized medical language. Additionally, a substantial portion of the information provided to coders is subjective, demanding a level of interpretation that current AI technology may not yet possess.For AI to acquire these essential skills, medical coders will need to train the systems, and auditors will be responsible for verifying their accuracy. This technological shift is inevitable, so RCM professionals should consider developing these skills to remain competitive in the evolving IT landscape.Join us as host Terry Fletcher welcomes Sirisha Bommireddipalli to the show for an insightful discussion on this important topic.

More management and insurance knowledge in my newsletter: https://www.odysseymgmt.com/newsletter   What if your child's speech or chewing could give you clues about hidden developmental delays?   Did you know that your child's visit to the dentist could hold hidden insights into their overall development? Join host Teresa Duncan and guest Ann-Marie DePalma as they unravel the fascinating connections between a child's oral health and early signs of developmental delays—including conditions like autism. Discover why dental professionals might be the first to spot clues, from speech impediments to tongue ties, and how these seemingly minor oral challenges can indicate deeper issues in your child's physical and cognitive growth.   But there's more: Ann-Marie explains how both clinical and administrative dental teams can play a critical role in identifying and supporting children with developmental delays, by looking for patterns during appointments and asking the right questions when families call. You'll also learn practical advice for parents—from understanding what happens if a tongue tie isn't treated, to the significance of early referrals for therapies such as myofunctional therapy.   And it's not just about childhood—this episode explores broader themes of women's health in dentistry, including the role of hormones during menopause and their surprising link to conditions such as TMJ, TMD, and chronic headaches. Plus, get an insider's view on how artificial intelligence is transforming how dental offices track development, screen for health risks, and make the entire patient experience (from online scheduling to payments) more accessible.   Whether you're a parent concerned about your child's speech, a dental professional encountering more patients with autism or developmental delays, or someone curious about the intersection of oral health, women's health, and modern technology, this episode is packed with essential insights and actionable tips to help you be proactive at every age and stage.   Connect with Ann-Marie: Website:https://depalmaannmarie.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annmariedepalma/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ann.marierdh/ Check out our previous Podcast: NTMT #159 Ep 99: Artificial Intelligence: What's The Big Deal? https://directory.libsyn.com/episode/index/id/24754176   ------------- I created Dental Revenue Network to foster collaboration and networking amongst RCM professionals.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God's grace. . . . — 1 Peter 4:8-10 D'Near Scott, known as “Twin,” is actually a triplet—but that's another story. Today he stands with us in a large circle before lunchtime. Twin has spent much of his adult life working odd jobs, staying in abandoned buildings, and trying to survive. At Roseland Christian Ministries (RCM), Twin has found something more—a place where he is valued. Like a member of any family, Twin takes on roles that help us function together. He's quick to mop floors, take out the garbage, or shovel snow when necessary. Sunday through Friday, you'll find him at RCM, smiling, helping with odd jobs, and sharing in the meals we serve. Today, as 25 to 30 of us stand in a circle before lunchtime, tears well up in Twin's eyes, and his voice quavers as he says, “You are my family.” As we go around the circle, each of us shares our name, gives thanks, offers prayer requests, and speaks words of encouragement. Then we pray together, lifting each other up to God in Jesus' name, and we break bread as a community. In this way we remember that Christ calls us into a new family—his body, the church. May we always see one another as brothers and sisters in Christ, bound together in his love and grace. We are family. Father, thank you for the family we find in Christ. Help us to be united in your love. May we serve and uplift each other, reflecting your grace and compassion. Amen.

Send us a textLuke stops by the show to discuss his musical journey, which started at the age of 7,  how the pandemic changed his life, a separate identity from being a singer/musician, and more. ****Luke Marzec's life has always been about music. He picked up the violin aged 7, the sax at 10 and the piano soon after. At just 11, his natural talent earned him a place at the prestigious Royal College of Music (RCM) Junior Department. In fact, most of Luke's childhood was spent either in the practice room or on stage. By the time he graduated high school, he had led countless classical and jazz bands, ensembles and orchestras - professionally, at school, RCM, and at the national level. He formed his first band at York University and spent most of his early 20s playing sax in various jazz, psychedelic, indie, and brass bands in the north. He gained a scholarship to Trinity Conservatoire's Master's course in 2016, but after a full term of shredding, decided to focus on his career as a solo artist. In 2018, he released his EP Chances, which received critical acclaim. Over the next couple of years, Luke released two more EPs and gained writing and production experience, doing the rounds co-writing with artists in the UK such as Maverick Sabre, VC Pines, Benjamin Francis Leftwich and Jazzanova. He featured on Johannes Brecht's “Voicing Something” which was remixed by Adriatique. His Spotify page now has more than 15 million listens.  Today, Luke is one-third of London's experimental modular synth-jazz group Lazy H and the Loose Cables, in which he plays the tenor sax and synthesizer. The trio have gigged with London's Kinkajous, Mark Cake, Alabaster DePlume, Plumm and FlamingGods, and they released their first album Rotary Perception with Nottingham-based label Running Circles earlier this year. The avant-garde jazz album takes listeners through psychedelic and tender soundscapes, perfect for sci-fi film scores. He also hosts Headroom – one of the city's most exciting jam sessions which showcases some of the capital's best jazz and electronic instrumentalists and producers. Covid instigated a new period for the artist when he moved into a 44-foot narrowboat. Living life as a water traveler, Luke spent a lot of time in the countryside in relative solitude, before moving to Devon and setting up a new studio. After months in lockdown, this frenetic new period led to a prolific stream of writing and recording. Despite Marzec's writing and collaborating prowess, he is most at ease on stage where everything is simplest, where decision making is easiest and where he feels most alive. After the first note is played, the rest is as if he was watching himself perform; as if his spirit floats to another realm to observe his body. During his performances, the rugged growl of his voice in brilliant contrast to the soft notes he plays on the keys allows him to connect with his audience in moments of sheer bliss and unity. In 2025 Luke will take up residence at one of the city's newest micro-venues while touring across Europe to promote his new album, debut album Something Good Out Of Nothing.*****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.
