What Outsourced Dental Payment Posting Costs in 2026

Introduction

Dental billing vendors price in three shapes: a percentage of collections with a monthly floor, a percentage of payments posted, or a flat fee plus a per-claim charge. The shapes are not interchangeable, and the scope behind them differs. Some prices include claim submission. Teero's does not, because Teero does not submit claims.

Key Takeaways

• Teero starts at 2% of payments posted, with volume discounts and an $800 monthly minimum. No contract, no software licence. If Teero does not post a payment, the office does not pay for it.
• eAssist, Dental Claim Support and Wisdom publish about $1,400 a month under $40,000 in monthly collections, then 2.5% to 3.5% of collections. Those prices include claim submission.
• Fincura publishes $250 a month plus $2 per claim posted, with a $1,000 implementation fee.
• Lassie published a 2% posting fee and $3,000 per-location setup in July 2026 and now quotes after a demo.

Three Pricing Shapes

Percentage of collections, with a floor

The vendor takes a share of everything the practice collects from insurance, and charges a flat amount when collections are below a threshold. Full-service billing companies use this shape and include submission, posting and follow-up in it.

Percentage of payments posted

The vendor charges on the payments it actually posts. Anything it does not post is not billed. This is Teero's shape, and it covers posting, aging follow-up, denials, secondary claims and appeals, but not submission.

Flat fee plus per claim

A fixed monthly charge plus a price per claim posted. Predictable at low volume, and worth recomputing as claim counts grow.

Worked example: $100,000 a month in insurance payments

Company	Monthly
Teero	$2,000 before volume discounts
eAssist	$2,500 to $3,500, plus clearinghouse and statements
Dental Claim Support	$2,500 to $3,500
Wisdom	$2,750 to $3,500
Fincura	$250 plus $2 per claim. At 500 claims, $1,250

Under $40,000 a month, the full-service floors are about $1,400 and Teero's 2% meets its $800 minimum at exactly $40,000.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does Teero's 2% cover? Posting of EFTs, ERAs, paper checks and virtual credit card payments line by line in Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental or Curve, plus follow-up on claims over 30 days, denials, underpayment checks, secondary claims and appeals.

Is there a software licence? No. Teero works inside the office's existing practice management system.

Can I start with posting only? Yes. Posting and aging can run without Teero's verification or staffing products.

Conclusion

If the office keeps claim submission in-house, Teero's 2% of posted payments is the lowest published price at $100,000 a month in insurance payments. If the office wants submission handled too, compare the full-service vendors on their percentage of collections and the $1,400 floor. Details are on Teero's posting pricing page.
