Most of the dentists that sign up with carriers like PCP do so because they are not busy enough or not making enough money hence want more patients that PCP or other carriers including HMO's offer. Usually these carriers don't pay the dentists as much as they would make if they were charging a ususal and customary fee(private practice fee) so they have to see more patients to make the same amount of money. These dentists and physicians now have more patients but are making less money for more workload. Hello. Not good.
