The OIMCgroup has acquired most of the insurances that provide dental coverage. And since the Health Insurance Law is being implemented by DHA in UAE for Dubai Nationals and Residents; and the plan dictates a universal coverage, OIMCgroup caters to all patients with insurance. Dubai Government has provided coverage for the Nationals.

Systematic organic growth philosophy
Site visit and international quality control:
1-Proposition: We have a complete circle of multispecialty dental treatments so that the incoming patient do not have to get referred elsewhere during a multiple procedures or full mouth multi specialty required care and cater to one stop philosophy centers that people need and our product is answering a need of 98% patient population except Cancer and severely medically compromised population.
2-The patients and the Market: In a study done by Dubai Health Authority Dental & Polyclinics Outpatient Clinical Services Infrastructure 141 Dental Clinics and 379 Polyclinics were surveyed for number of clinical services and specialties. Aprox. 500 thousand patients visited these clinics per year, 1083 patients were seen by each doctor. In their report they published that Orthodontists population were 38 which was the most widely offered service at Dental Clinics, followed by Endodontists 15, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons 21, Pedodontists 28 were children visits were at over 700 patient visits per clinic, periodontists 13 and prosthodontists 17 with Esthetic Dentistry rated the least reported service. OIMCgroup has all above specialities and more than 5000 patients’ visits per year which means we treat 5% of the total patients. Since market growth is 7.4% per year we infer that if we maintain 5% share our income will increase by 7.4%. With 2 advantages that our patient’s records are over 15 years old and we cater the Insured and none insured patients.
3-The competition: We are up against lower quality highly advertised high priced or very low priced facilities. We learned from both of them that when complication occurs the patients eventually find us. Our way of competing is through increasing our exposure.
4-The Industry: The trend that impacts the industry is being active in social media and interactive web site and this is how we predict future trends are going on.
5-The channel: different routes to find more patients and participating doctors is the word of mouth and intensive campaigns. We connect our company to the customers through improving our website and maintaining our quality control with the services delivered.
Associations & Affiliations:
6-The relationship: Our financial relationship with the customer is fee for service and with the collaborators fixed price. Our institute is a non profit organization where all its income is reinvested in the training expenses.
7-The pricing model: During the last 17 years we concluded that there is a Positive correlation relationship between two variables treatment value and patients care. This positive correlation exists when one variable decreases as the other variable decreases too. And hence, we charge our patients for only 30% of our clinic fee and using higher quality products.
8-The key partner: The goal of seeking a partner is to help us to deliver our product and service better. And hence the participating doctors have been the major key partners in our facility.
9-The asset: Our key asset is our high standard of care provided by our facility. We strive to be recognized internationally as a contemporary, progressive, innovative and vibrant center for dental education and patients’ service. Our mission is to achieve distinction in dental education, research and oral health care to the benefit of our local community. This mission is delivered physically by recruiting highly qualified dentists, intellectually by informed consent, humanly by quality control and financially by keeping our profit margin fare within 20-30%.
10-The key competency: We are excellent in the activities we perform in order to prosper and in up-to-date with the skills and we bring these experiences to our team of 22+ staffs with 7 doctors with all specialties who are ready to serve the needs of our patients with the best possible treatment.
