Your clinic with break-fix, chaotic IT

Dental practices rely on connected technology to manage patient records, billing, and clinical operations. As threats targeting healthcare grow, maintaining compliance, security, and system reliability is more critical than ever.

ID-1

HIPAA compliance complexity

Staying HIPAA compliant isn't a one-time checkbox. It covers how patient records are stored, who can access them, and how your whole team handles data day to day. Keeping up with it takes time and know-how that most practices don't have.

Targeted cybersecurity threats

Dental practices are an increasingly common target for ransomware and phishing attacks. One untrained staff member or one unprotected device is all it takes to expose patient data and bring your practice to a halt.

Web

Downtime uncertainty

A system going down mid-appointment is more than a headache. It disrupts patient care, delays billing, and chips away at the trust you've worked hard to build. Your practice needs IT that just works.

Chaos in IT

Outdated software, network unreliability, untested backups, slow troubleshooting, vendor sprawl with unaligned, fluctuating billing cycles. All of which can lead to expensive downtime that disrupts patient care and damages your reputation.

Chaos in security

Phishing, ransomware, unencrypted patient data, shared passwords, and undertrained staff. All of which can expose patient data, break HIPAA compliance, and leave you with a hefty bill to pay.


Your dental clinic with calm, fixed-fee IT

IT should be calm & predictable. Infrastructure is optimized, systems are working, and data is secure. When you don't have to think about IT issues, you can focus on what matters the most: running your practice and providing high-quality, trusted patient care.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about our managed services for dental practices.

How much does managed IT support cost for a dental practice?

We work on a fixed monthly fee based on the size of your practice and the services you need. No surprise invoices, no hourly charges when something breaks. You know exactly what you're paying every month, which makes budgeting straightforward and eliminates the "should I call them or just deal with it" hesitation.

Do we need to sign a long-term contract?

We're confident in the service we provide, so we don't rely on locking clients in to keep them around. We operate on a month-to-month fee cycle and keep our agreements simple and fair.

What happens when something goes wrong outside of business hours?

Dental practices don't always run into IT problems between 9 and 5. We provide after-hours support, so your team isn't stuck waiting until Monday morning when something goes sideways before a full patient day.

How long does it take to get set up with edgefi?

Onboarding is straightforward and we handle the heavy lifting. Depending on your current IT environment, we provide a detailed roadmap prioritized by higher-impact items first and less vital items over time. Most practices are fully transitioned without any disruption to day-to-day operations.

We already have an IT person. Can edgefi work alongside them?

Absolutely. Some practices have an internal tech person or office manager who handles basic IT tasks. We work well alongside existing staff and can fill gaps in security, compliance, and specialist dental software support that most generalists aren't equipped to handle.

Is edgefi local?

We're based in Vancouver, WA, and serve dental practices across the greater Portland metro region. We also have techs strategically placed nationwide. No matter where you are, when you need someone on site, we show up.
