Three DSO scaling problems we solve
01
DSO consolidation typically adds 2 to 4 front-office FTEs per acquired practice (1.5 schedulers, 0.5 to 1 insurance verifier, 0.5 to 1 recall coordinator). At $26 to $42 per hour fully loaded, 4 FTEs per location across 50 locations equals $3.2M to $5.2M in annual front-office labor cost. Centralizing scheduling and recall to a CFG nearshore team typically reduces that by 40 to 55 percent without sacrificing patient experience metrics.
02
Dental industry research: every 1 percent increase in active recall reactivation rate adds roughly $80K to $140K in annualized revenue per location. Most DSOs sit at 35 to 48 percent active recall (patients due for next visit who actually book). CFG-managed centralized recall typically lifts that to 58 to 72 percent at steady state through aggressive multi-channel outreach (call + SMS + email) that single-location staff don't have bandwidth for.
03
Insurance verification accuracy below 92 percent compounds into 8 to 14 percent of patient appointments hitting day-of insurance-related cancellation, no-show, or rescheduling, which kills chair utilization. CFG dental agents run real-time verification through Vyne Trellis, Onederful, DentalXChange, and direct payer portals. Benchmark: 94 to 96 percent accuracy at steady state, which restores 4 to 8 percent of chair utilization.
Dental practice management software fluency
CFG dental call center agents complete a 5 to 7-day platform fluency training before going live. Training covers the actual workflow inside the buyer's chosen dental PMS, not a generic call-script approach.

Production benchmarks
Delivery footprint
CFG delivers US dental DSO call center programs from four nearshore locations. Jamaica EST year-round for East Coast DSOs and multi-state portfolios with English-only patient bases. Trinidad AST for DSOs where the workflow includes meaningful billing, insurance, and revenue cycle complexity and the Trinidad bench's finance literacy reduces ramp. Colombia bilingual for DSOs in Texas, Florida, California, Arizona, NY metro where Hispanic patient share is meaningful and Spanish-language scheduling is a booking-rate lever. Belize CST for DSOs HQ in Texas, Chicago, Minneapolis where Central Time alignment matters for multi-state location coverage.
