A dental service organization is a newer structure which has become increasingly popular of late.
This practice ownership configuration allows for a licensed dentist to own the patient charts, x-ray equipment, and other assets which require a dental license. It also allows the dentist to enter into an arrangement with a management company which can provide accounting, marketing, employment, and other services as well as the real estate for the venture.
Having an experienced dental attorney navigate the many issues and complexities of a DSO is critical to a dentist or a management company’s success in entering into this type of structure.
