Don’t deny it! Admit it! Every one of us has had this happen during your career! The cases that you didn’t read the patient well, didn’t get the proper diagnostic material, didn’t take the time to really listen and see what was appropriate for your patient. Whether you have made a minor mis-judgement, or totally face-planted, NOW WHAT?

Discuss your patient’s “wants and needs” so you minimize misunderstandings.

Review the predictable new patient experience, and how to engage the entire team for a higher level of case acceptance.

Learn how to react when things go wrong-how to diagnose, document, and recover so that the appropriate care gets delivered.

Webinar: How to Make the Most Out of Your Dental Hygiene Appointment
2023-04-11 19:00 - 20:00

Invisible Dental Support Organizations (IDSO) are Coming to Your Town. Are You Ready?
2023-03-21 19:00 - 20:00
You will partner with one or compete with many…

In this interactive webinar, doctors will understand the benefits and threats of IDSOs. Doctors leverage an IDSO partner by selling 51% to 90% of their practice for cash upfront and retain autonomous ownership. They continue to lead their practice as owners with their brand, team, and strategy for years or decades to come.

IDSO silent partners provide their doctor partners with support that is not readily available to independent dentists, including:

Recruiting

Marketing

Lower Costs

Higher Reimbursement Rates

Admin burden reduction

In the last 90 days of 2022, over $5 billion was invested in IDSOs by sophisticated investors making their first investment in dental practice consolidation (not just Private Equity). Values are still high, but rising interest rates may dampen the enthusiasm.

Join us to learn what is happening in your industry and your area when it comes to IDSO partnerships.

WEBINAR: Medical Billing, Get Paid as a Medical Specialist
2023-03-13 19:00 - 20:00
Date: March 13, 2023 | 7:00 PM CST/8:00 PM EST
Duration: 1 Hour
Credits: 1
Sponsor: TIPS
We all know there is a link between oral health and the rest of your body. If that is the reality, we should be billing many of our procedures as a medical specialist to medical carriers. After all, your patients have benefits for many of the things that you do every day in your practice.
This course you will help develop an understanding of WHY you would want to incorporate Medical Billing into your practice. You will learn which procedures that you perform every day in your practice can be billed to medical as well as the difference between dental and medical insurance and how you can collect up to your full fee, decreasing write-offs. This course will show you the ROI and the value that medical billing can bring to your practice, as well as increased case acceptance by giving your patients another way to pay for the treatment that they need and want.
If you have tried this and it has failed, DO NOT GIVE UP — it does work! No matter your specialty in this industry, if you are ready to shift your mindset of being “just a dentist” to that of a medical specialist, you will want to attend this course.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

Identify what procedures can you bill to Medical
Understand the financial and marketing opportunities with Medical Billing
Decrease the patient’s out of pocket expense… their dental benefits are limited!
Increase case acceptance
Understand what you need to implement in order to be successful
How accepting medical insurance allows you to see more NEW patients
