The Cost of Inaction

Three failures happening in your contracts right now.

Most practices discover these problems after they've already cost them. Covenant surfaces them before the damage is done.

01
Silent Failure

Missed Renewal Windows

The 90-day notice clause is on page 14. Your calendar reminder was set for 60 days. The insurer auto-renewed at last year's rates — rates that were already 8% below market.

$41,200

average annual loss per location from silent auto-renewals at below-market rates

A 3-location practice in Phoenix missed Delta Dental's negotiation window in Q3 2024. The contract auto-renewed. They left $123,600 on the table.

Renewal Radar

Silent Failure

Fee Schedule Erosion

Your UCR is $890 for a crown. Your Delta fee is $612. Your Cigna fee was $598 — until last year's renegotiation you didn't know happened. It's now $571.

$28,400

average annual revenue lost per provider from undiscovered fee schedule reductions

An associate dentist at a Nashville group practice discovered her reimbursement rates had been renegotiated downward twice in 18 months. Neither time was she notified.

Silent Failure

Network & Non-Compete Conflicts

You signed a most-favored-nation clause in 2021. You joined a new GPO in 2023. These two documents have never been in the same room. Neither has your attorney.

$180,000

average cost of a network compliance dispute including legal fees and lost network status

A DSO in the Southeast discovered a non-compete clause conflict across 12 locations only when a carrier threatened network termination. Legal fees alone: $47,000.

Compliance Shield

Cross-references every active contract for conflicting clauses, MFN provisions, and network exclusivity terms — flagging conflicts before they become crises.

Network Intelligence

Know your GPO leverage

3.2×
average improvement in rate negotiation outcomes with benchmark data in hand

Analyzes your participation across networks and GPOs, surfaces participation conflicts, and quantifies the revenue impact of each network relationship — so you negotiate from data, not intuition.

  • GPO participation analysis
  • Network revenue attribution
  • Participation conflict mapping
  • Benchmark negotiation reports

A practice with 5 carrier agreements that misses one renewal window, absorbs one undisclosed fee reduction, and carries one undetected clause conflict is looking at $249,600 in combined annual exposure. Most practices have all three — simultaneously.
