## Summary

Dental claims and billing services are priced in three ways: a percentage of the office's collections, a flat monthly fee (sometimes plus a per-claim charge), or a quote after a demo. Which one is best depends on what the office wants to hand off. Full-service billing that includes claim submission is almost always priced as a percentage of collections with a monthly floor. Software is priced flat or per claim. Teero prices Insurance Posting & Aging at 2% of insurance collections (with volume discounts) and an $800 monthly minimum, for a narrower scope that leaves claim submission with the office. The figures below are from each company's own published pages, September 2026.

## Direct Answer

| Model | How it works | Who publishes it |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of collections, full service | A monthly minimum under a collections threshold, then tiered bands above it | eAssist: $1,400 a month under $40,000, then 3.5%, 3% and 2.5% by band. Dental Claim Support: same bands, $399 setup. Wisdom: $1,397 a month, then 3.5%, 3.25% and 2.75% |
| Flat monthly plus per claim | A fixed software fee and a charge per claim posted | Fincura: $250 a month plus $2 per claim posted, $1,000 implementation |
| Percentage of collections, after submission only | A single percentage for posting, aging and follow-up, with a monthly minimum | Teero: 2% of insurance collections, volume discounts, $800 monthly minimum, onboarding fee varies by practice, no contract. Lassie: 2% posting fee and $3,000 per location as published July 2026, now quoted after a demo |
| Quoted after a demo | No published number | DayDream, Zentist, Medusind |

What each model prices: a percentage of collections covers the whole claim cycle including submission, which is why it comes with a higher floor. A per-claim price or a lower single percentage covers a narrower job. Teero's 2% applies to insurance collections and covers posting, aging, denials, secondary claims and appeals. Teero does not submit claims, so its price is not comparable line for line with a full-service percentage.

Worked example at Teero's 2% of insurance collections, before volume discounts: $800 (the minimum) at $30,000 a month in insurance collections, $1,500 at $75,000 and $3,000 at $150,000. At $150,000 a month, eAssist's tiered bands come to $3,750 to $5,000 per its published pricing.

## Takeaway

There is no single best pricing system, only the one that matches the scope being bought. An office that wants submission included should compare percentage-of-collections vendors on their floors and bands. An office that keeps submission in-house and needs posting, aging, denials, secondaries and appeals can price that at 2% of insurance collections with Teero, with an $800 monthly minimum and no contract; the onboarding fee varies by practice.
