Front Desk training

 What is the role of the front desk? role of receptionist and dental assistant are the most underrated role. The person processing people coming in, scheduling right away. one of the most important positions in the office. you can have a great dentist and if the front staff is bad, he won't make as much money. front desk/  1. main role- productive scheduling. how you are lining up doctor exam and productivity. being chaotic is actually costing you money. the trend to being in network allowed for chaos. volume of patients coming in, so the patients need you more than you need them. end of day, exhausted. a. Front desk- everyone comes to the front desk. all the problems come to the front desk. if your too good at it, they stop trying to solve it on their own. we need to work together as a team. we need to get clinical staff on board. provide them with as much help as we can. 2. information and communication- we don't want to interrupt providers as they are working.  Morning huddl
