Rubicon Dental Associates is a Montana-homegrown
Dental Support Organization (
DSO) with a strong presence across the state, including locations in Dillon, Big Timber, Billings, Laurel, Hardin, and Red Lodge. Established with the core mission of enhancing the work-life balance and professional success of dentists, Rubicon Dental Associates offers comprehensive management and support services.
For dentists, Rubicon handles the intricate and time-consuming administrative burdens associated with running a dental practice. This includes human resources (payroll, benefits, hiring, termination, performance reviews, handbook creation, OSHA compliance), financial systems (transaction tracking, tax document preparation, auditing), insurance expertise (negotiating optimal reimbursement rates with third-party payers), and marketing and growth strategies (local marketing, support for equipment upgrades, access to private equity and investment opportunities).
A key aspect of Rubicon Dental Associates' model is its commitment to provider autonomy. While offering robust support and leveraging its scale for benefits like vendor discounts and competitive pricing, Rubicon empowers individual dentists to maintain ownership and operate their practices according to their unique vision. This approach fosters a collaborative community among partner dentists, offering opportunities for continuing education, mentorship, and professional camaraderie.
Rubicon also provides training resources through "Rubicon University," a database of training videos for both clinical and front desk staff, alongside personalized in-person or remote training. This comprehensive support system aims to reduce stress for dentists, allowing them to focus on delivering high-quality patient care, achieve financial growth, and enjoy more personal time. Patient testimonials often highlight the positive impact of this model on the patient experience, citing friendly staff and attentive care in the affiliated practices.
