In this replay episode of the Tooth and Coin Podcast, I sit down with Jordon Comstock, the founder of Boom Cloud, to talk about a topic I know hits home for many dentists: breaking free from the chokehold of PPO insurance. Jordon shares how Boom Cloud was born out of his desire to help dental practices create predictable, recurring revenue through in-house membership plans—and why this model is so critical for long-term practice growth. From the initial frustrations dentists face with insurance to the process of building a tech platform specifically for our industry, this conversation sets the stage for what modern dental business can look like.
We dive into practical strategies for implementing successful membership programs, including how to market them effectively, stay within legal guidelines, and create systems that streamline operations. Jordon also explains how Boom Cloud’s latest features—like in-house patient financing—are helping practices close more treatment plans and improve patient loyalty. Along the way, he shares powerful real-life examples from dentists who’ve seen remarkable transformations in both revenue and patient satisfaction after reducing insurance dependence.
If you're a dentist who’s ready to regain control of your practice’s financial health and deliver better care without the insurance middleman, this episode is packed with insight. We wrap up by discussing the psychology behind membership programs and how they create a win-win for patients and providers alike. Tune in and discover how to take your practice to the next level—on your own terms.
