1347 Danielle Ichelson on Billing Management & Addiction in the Dental Field : Dentistry Uncensored with Howard Farran

Danielle Ichelson, CEO of Dental Accounts at Ease, was a Las Vegas Showgirl on Ice turned Dental Practice Master. Danielle who had no desire to be in dentistry, as she was a professional figure skater, was brought into our field and found she was gifted at managing Dental Practices and understanding all areas of the Billing Department. While many others have tunnel vision in their positions, she had a gift of seeing the practice as a whole. “One position does not work without the other” is her constant motto. She worked locally in Phoenix, AZ and made a name for herself that brought dentists knocking at her door after-hours to help. In 2013, after assisting a failing single dentist practice in Gilbert, AZ hit over $120,000 in revenue within 90 days through her restructure plan, she launched her idea of outsourcing her services around Arizona, not realizing it would become a need around the U.S. In 2017, after many years contracting solo, an expansion plan happened through their own SEO designer, and she turned Dental Accounts at Ease into one of the largest Dental Billing Companies in the nation.
