Patient Plan Direct

Call Directions Website

Patient Plan Direct Practice-branded dental plans, backed by personal support. We help dental practices launch a plan, switch provider or move from NHS to private dentistry.

Patient Plan Direct (PPD) is a forward-thinking dental plan provider, that prides itself on delivering first-class dental plan solutions and exceptional client support. Our plan fees are much lower when compared to other major plan providers, allowing practice owners to make huge cost savings when switching from an existing plan provider to PPD. Historically, a change in plan provider required contacting patients and asking them to complete a new direct debit mandate. The revised 'bulk change process' we call simple switch, now manages the transfer of direct debits between providers in the background - no action required from patients! We also have a wealth of experience planning and executing NHS to private conversions. From calculating the initial viability analysis to managing patient communication and everything in between, we have a proven formula to successfully transition a practice from NHS to private dentistry. Our expert team will work with you to make it a success, with ongoing support thereafter. Want to know more? Get in touch with our team today.

The team are ready to go at Agilio Live today!

We’re at The Brewery in London for the Agilio customer conference, bringing practice leaders together to hear from some brilliant speakers and explore what’s next for dentistry.

On the agenda: technology that takes care of the operational work behind the scenes, and practical ways to use AI to tackle the things you haven’t had time to get to. More time and attention for patients? That’s a future worth talking about.

If you’re here, come and say hello to the PPD team!
