Reduce no-shows, automate claim follow-up, and eliminate the clipboard intake process — without replacing your EHR.
Most independent practices carry a full clinical workload and a second job's worth of administrative work on top of it. Prior authorizations, claim follow-up, patient scheduling, and collections create overhead that grows with every new patient — unless you automate it. We build the connective tissue between your practice management software, billing, and communications so your team can focus on patients, not paperwork.
Real result: Data-Dance reduces no-show rate by 34% for a 3-provider family medicine practice.
Most independent practices have a two-to-four week lag between service delivery and billing submission — and a further 30–60 days before payment. MGMA benchmarks target days in A/R at 30–40, with less than 13.5% of receivables aging past 90 days. Connecting your EHR to your billing workflow and collections follow-up is the most direct path to hitting those targets.
The industry benchmark for a well-run practice is a no-show rate of 5–7% (MGMA). Most small clinics run 15–20%. Automated reminder sequences — text, email, and phone — can reduce no-shows by 30% or more. Recall automation for due-for-checkup patients fills your schedule from your existing patient base, not paid advertising.
Paper intake forms create manual data entry, filing overhead, and HIPAA surface area. Digital intake through your practice management system (or connected tools like Tebra, Athenahealth, or Dentrix) eliminates the paper step and gets patient data into the right fields automatically.
We don't require you to switch platforms. We connect the tools you already have — or the ones that best fit your operation.

Founder, Data-Dance · Solution Architect
I spent years as a Solution Architect working with Fortune 500 companies — designing the systems, automations, and data pipelines that let enterprises run at scale. Clean data flows. Real-time visibility. Decisions driven by numbers, not gut feel.
The frustrating part wasn't the work. It was watching small business owners struggle with the exact same problems, without access to the same tools or expertise. The technology existed. The methods were proven. The only thing missing was someone willing to bring it to them at a price that made sense.
That's what Data-Dance is. Not a software vendor. Not an outsourced IT firm. A partner who builds the automation, explains every system we touch, and makes sure you walk away understanding what you have — and why it works.
"The tools Fortune 500 companies use to protect their margins aren't secret. They're just not being applied at the SMB level. That's the gap I built Data-Dance to close."
Each tier is built for a specific stage of growth. You'll know which one fits in the first 30 seconds.
Manual data entry eliminated from day one
Spending 5+ hrs/week on manual data entry? At that rate, Overture typically pays for itself within the first month.
Know your numbers before your accountant does
Investment scales with your data stack — scoped transparently on your discovery call.
Problems caught and corrected before they reach the P&L
Custom engagement — scoped with a detailed estimate before you commit to anything.
Some clients finish their build and want to keep us close. The Choreographer is a monthly retainer — no standard contract, no packaged deliverables. We figure out together what ongoing looks like for your operation. That might be daily monitoring and a monthly debrief. It might be quarterly strategy sessions and on-call access. It's built around you, not the other way around.
Every engagement comes with two commitments: we identify savings or ROI that covers the cost of our work, and you walk away satisfied — or we make it right. No fine print. No exceptions.
ROI Guarantee
If the systems we build don't deliver the time savings or efficiency gains we scoped in writing, we keep working until they do — at no additional charge. Identified opportunities don't count. Delivered results do.
Satisfaction Guarantee
Every engagement has a defined scope. If what we deliver doesn't match that scope, we fix it — no arguments, no extra cost. You'll understand every system we build before we leave.

For practices with specific compliance requirements, we provide a written description of data flows for your privacy officer to review. We're not a covered entity ourselves, but we build as if we are.
That's the profile where automation creates the most immediate ROI. A 2-provider practice with one front desk staff member is usually the operation where the front desk is the bottleneck — they're handling phones, scheduling, reminders, and check-in simultaneously. Automating any one of those frees up significant capacity.
We have experience with Athenahealth, Tebra (formerly Kareo), Dentrix, Eaglesoft, AdvancedMD, and several others. If you use a platform with an API or webhook support, we can build with it. If you use a legacy on-premise system, we assess what automation is practical before we scope anything.
