If A Dentist is off Sick It Makes A Big Difference to Your Practice

If you run a dental practice, one of the issues that you face is that of having one of your partners off sick or away from work for a variety of other reasons. As we have always said at Approachable Locum Insurance, if your partner is only away for a few days, you can probably manage to handle it. Certainly, you may have to rebook some appointments, but that is not usually an issue. However, if one of your dentists is away for some weeks, or even months, it can make a really big difference to your practice turnover. Some dental practices are big, of course, but the average practice in the UK has just three dentists working in it, so if one is away, your turnover drops by one third. And if there are only two of you, it drops by half. Not good.

That means that under those circumstances you would be in a position where you would need to hire a locum to stand in for the dentist who is away in order to provide the necessary services to your patients. Now there is nothing wrong with that. In fact, it would be a very good thing, apart from one consideration: locum dentists are not cheap. They are actually very expensive, and will add considerably to your overheads, which is never a good thing. This is also why locum dentists do what they do, because they can earn more than they would working in a single practice.

You Need Locum Insurance The simple answer is that you need to take out dentist locum insurance. This will cover you for all of the extra expense of hiring a locum when you need to maintain the services you provide for your patients.

At Approachable Locum Insurance, we are specialists in providing insurance not just to dentists but to all of the medical sector. Not all dental practices are the same, and we will work with you to ensure that you get cover for the things that you need and don’t have a policy that includes things that you don’t require for your practice.

Our dentist locum insurance is underwritten by Lloyds of London, so you can be sure you are getting perfect cover. It also contains a continuation option. What that means is that it cannot be cancelled, restricted, or declined at the time of renewal, no matter what variations in health may have occurred with an insured individual.
