The NHS Wales reform is set to take effect this April, and it represents one of the most significant shifts Welsh dental practices have faced in recent years. While the reform aims to reshape how NHS dentistry is delivered and funded, many practice owners are still grappling with unanswered questions, uncertainty around implementation, and the potential long-term impact on practice stability, value, and patient care.
In this webinar, Ross and Simon of Patient Plan Direct, explore what these upcoming changes really mean for dental practices across Wales. Although some key details of the reform may not be confirmed until as late as February 2026, practices are required to adapt to changes with as little as 14 days’ notice. This compressed timeline places added pressure on practice owners to act early, plan strategically, and protect their businesses against disruption.
Forward-thinking practices are already taking steps to safeguard their future; reassessing their NHS exposure, reviewing financial structures, and strengthening operational resilience. This expert-led session is designed to help you do the same, with practical, actionable insights tailored specifically to the evolving NHS Wales dental contract landscape.
Drawing on extensive experience in dental practice finance, strategy, and transition planning, Simon and Ross break down complex policy changes into clear, relevant guidance for practice owners. During the session, you’ll gain clarity on:
- How the NHS Wales reform will impact your practice and daily operations
- Key financial and contractual considerations for practice owners
- Practical steps you can take now
- Strategies to maintain a balanced patient base
- Essential takeaways to preserve your practice’s value and goodwill
This webinar is ideal for Welsh dental practice owners, associates considering ownership, and decision-makers seeking clarity in an increasingly complex NHS environment. Whether you are heavily NHS-focused, mixed, or already considering a shift in your practice model, the insights shared will help you make informed, confident decisions.
