alphaSource Consulting is a dental operations consulting firm that combines dental industry experience, practical analysis, and AI-assisted tools to help practices identify priorities and improve operational follow-through.
The services are designed for independent dental practices, growth-oriented offices, dental groups, and multi-location organizations that want clearer operational priorities and practical implementation support.
Engagements can focus on production and collections, revenue leakage, accounts receivable and claims workflows, new-patient conversion, scheduling, reporting visibility, leadership cadence, team efficiency, and related operating priorities.
Yes. Multi-location work can include location-level comparison, shared KPI definitions, operating rhythm, revenue-cycle visibility, leadership reporting, and prioritization across the group. Scope is confirmed before an engagement begins.
No. Consulting and analysis are intended to improve clarity, prioritization, and execution. Outcomes depend on the practice, available data, decisions, and implementation, so financial or operational results are not guaranteed.
It is a focused, consultant-reviewed diagnostic for one practice or location. The published scope includes a defined file set, AI-assisted analysis, human consultant review, a PDF summary, a 30-minute review call, and a 30-day action plan.
Current founder pricing is $995 for the published one-practice or one-location scope. Final scope, fees, and any work beyond that published scope are confirmed in writing before the engagement begins.
A sprint is a project-based engagement for a defined operational issue. Current examples include revenue leakage, AR and claims cleanup, and growth or new-patient conversion. Final scope, timing, and fees are confirmed in writing.
It is an ongoing advisory option for practices that need a recurring operating rhythm. The published offer can include monthly file review, KPI and trend review, a leadership call, implementation priorities, and a follow-up scorecard.
An initial conversation confirms the operating question, available data, sensitivity requirements, urgency, and desired level of implementation support. The team can then recommend a review, focused sprint, or ongoing advisory scope.
The current published target for standard files is typically three to five business days after the approved file set is available. Timing can change with file readiness, scope, and data quality.
AI-assisted tools can organize and analyze approved financial or operational files, surface patterns, and support draft findings. Human consultants review and interpret the output before client-facing recommendations are delivered.
No. The public analyzer is an initial intake and analysis workflow. Paid consulting adds scope confirmation, human interpretation, prioritization, client-facing deliverables, and the agreed level of review or implementation support.
The exact file set depends on the engagement. Approved financial or operational exports may include supported PDF, CSV, or XLSX files. The team confirms required files and the correct transfer method before sensitive data is submitted.
Deliverables depend on the written scope. A focused review can include a PDF summary, prioritized findings, a review call, and an action plan. Sprints and ongoing engagements may add implementation priorities, scorecards, trend review, and follow-up.
Implementation support is available when included in a sprint or ongoing advisory scope. The Practice Opportunity Review is a diagnostic and action-planning engagement and does not include unlimited implementation work.
No. Do not submit protected health information, patient records, passwords, payment card data, or confidential files through public contact forms or the public analyzer. Use only the secure workflow provided by the alphaSource Consulting team.
When an engagement requires sensitive files, the team provides a separate Secure Upload workflow. Public forms and public analytics are intentionally kept separate from client file-transfer workflows.
alphaSource Consulting has an agreement workflow for BAA/Privacy Agreements when appropriate to the engagement. The applicable agreement is generated, reviewed, signed by both parties, and retained through private document workflows.
Agreement PDFs are stored privately. Authorized admin access and short-lived document links are used for review and retrieval rather than permanent public document URLs.
The public Privacy Policy explains website analytics, contact lead capture, privacy choices, and public request handling. Consulting scope, confidentiality, and sensitive-data handling are governed by the applicable written engagement documents.
The admin team can send secure Stripe Checkout links for one-time offers, approved upload-based work, and recurring consulting engagements. The applicable offer, amount, and term are shown before payment.
Use the original email link or contact alphaSource Consulting from the email address associated with the engagement. Do not send passwords, tokens, payment card information, or sensitive files by email.
Email hello@alphasourceconsulting.com with your name, organization, the email associated with the engagement, and a short description of the issue. Sensitive files should only be sent through an approved secure workflow.
