The economics

~24.5% of collections
is in play.

That's the share of gross revenue a typical group spends on the administrative overhead Dion can run — front office workload, software subscriptions, billing labor, and the corporate back office. Dion runs those functions for roughly half of what they cost today.

The addressable stack

Four overhead lines. All of them administrative.

Clinical labor is deliberately excluded. Dion’s pricing is anchored to overhead functions — which means it structurally cannot bill for replacing a clinician. We augment clinical work; we don’t price against it.

Overhead lineTypical share of collectionsWhat Dion runs there
Front desk / admin labor~10%Reception queues, scheduling & recall workload, intake, confirmations
Software subscriptions~3%The owned Dion stack replaces the subscription pile — it’s bundled in the wage
Accounting / billing labor~3.5%Claims, ERA posting, denials, AR follow-up, statements
Corporate office overhead~8%Bookkeeping & close, HR / payroll administration, procurement, reporting
Total addressable~24.5%Independent practices without a corporate office: ~16.5%

Industry-typical shares used for illustration. Your actual stack is measured from your P&L at onboarding — that measurement, not these benchmarks, is what you’re quoted on.

How pricing works

No list price. A quote built from your P&L.

Each AI employee carries a flat monthly wage — far below the loaded cost of the overhead line it absorbs — plus metered usage beyond an included allotment. Software is bundled into the wage; there is no separate subscription line. The engagement is quoted from your actual numbers at onboarding, not from a rate card.

Benchmark scenarioDion charge (% of gross)Client keeps (pts of gross)Overhead cut
Conservative9%15.5 pts~63%
Balanced (typical)11%13.5 pts~55%
Aggressive13%11.5 pts~47%

Benchmarks for orientation, not the pricing rule. Typical outcome: roughly halve the addressable overhead. The actual figure is computed per client.

Worked examples

What the math looks like at two scales.

Independent practice

$1.5M collections, single location

Addressable overhead today (~16.5%)~$247,500 / yr
Dion core team — Front Desk, Billing/RCM, Treatment Coordination, Collections~$8,800 / mo
Dion engagement~$105,600 / yr
Client keeps~$141,900 / yr (~57%)

Before counting the treatment-acceptance and recall upside the functions drive — that’s revenue, not just cost.

Group / DSO

10 locations × $1.5M = $15M

Addressable overhead today (~24.5%, incl. corporate)~$3.7M / yr
Per-location teams + one shared corporate back officequoted from P&L
The 8-point corporate line is absorbed once — not ten timesshared
Client keeps~$2.3M / yr (~64%)

Group economics improve with scale because the corporate bundle is shared across locations while per-location functions stay local.

Both examples are illustrative benchmarks from our pricing model — not guarantees, and not your quote. Your quote is computed from your own collections, payroll, and vendor stack during the onboarding analysis. The analysis never assumes a staffing reduction.
