An HSC workforce for Northern Ireland.

For HSC practices in Northern Ireland, an empty chair is lost activity and a longer waiting list. Dentello supplies a fully managed dentist on a fee-per-item model under the SDR, with no placement fee and replacement protection throughout the placement.

What's included

What the 45 / 45 / 10 model actually means

It is simple: of the revenue your placed dentist actually generates for the clinic, 45% stays with your practice, 45% goes to the dentist and 10% to Dentello. You only ever pay that 10% on what the dentist has actually generated, so if they generate less, you pay less, and you are only ever paying for what they bring in. There is no placement fee and nothing else on top: no separate locum charges, no fixed finder's or placement fee, and no agency fees.

What the rate covers

The managed dentist, plus fully managed activation (UKVI, GDC and NHS), onboarding, replacement protection, all under the one arrangement.

What it replaces

No separate associate deal to negotiate alone, no agency introduction fee, and no premium locum day rates. One managed model instead of a stack of costs.

What sits outside it

There is no placement fee. Home Office and visa fees are payable separately where they apply to an overseas placement.

How it applies to your practice

Because HSC pay under the SDR depends on the treatment delivered, we map the 45 / 45 / 10 model to your contract rather than quoting a single rate. Talk to us for a breakdown specific to your practice.

Why Northern Ireland Practices Choose Dentello

HSC delivery should not hinge on one chair.

An empty chair in an HSC practice is lost activity and a longer waiting list. A fully managed workforce, backed by replacement protection throughout the placement, keeps delivery running.
