Don Dale serves as CEO and President of OrthoEconomics, Inc. He has over 25 years of healthcare management experience. The majority of his time has been spent working with physician groups to provide the strategy and tools needed to maximize the financial and operational performance for his physician clients.

Prior to joining VMG Health, Mr. Dale was President of Practice Performance, Inc. (PPI), a third party business process outsourcing firm serving medical practices in Texas, Colorado and South Carolina, since 1996. The company provided accounts receivable management, accounting/financial services, human resource services, information technology outsourcing and practice management consulting services to physician practices. The company was successfully sold to MedSynergies, Inc. in 2006, where Mr. Dale became Senior Vice President of MedSynergies, Inc. and President of MedSynergies’ Surgical Division.
Mr. Dale started his career in Healthcare in the audit division of Ernst and Young, received his BBA in accounting from Texas Tech University and is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA).

We have partnered with the OrthoEconomics team for the past 20 years. They have helped us re-establish our orthopedic group practice as we left a failed practice management company. With their billing and financial our financial performance have never been better. In addition, they facilitated a merger with another orthopedic group practice on our behalf and have been a trusted partner to this day.
James Montgomery, M.D.
Texas Orthopeadic Associates
Re-establishing a private surgical practice would have been much more difficult without the guidance of OrthoEconomics. After working closely with my staff to ensure that virtually all processes in the practice were set up correctly, We were very pleasantly surprised to see that the collection results derived by OrthoEconomics were higher than expected. With the help of OrthoEconomics, we were positioned to add additional surgeons and are well on our way in our strategic plan.
