Medical billing has been a hot topic for the past five years. Find out what all the hype is about and if it is something you should pursue in your dental practice. As dental benefits diminish and become more restrictive, and because calendar-year maximums have been stagnant for the past 40 years, medical plans have picked up the slack. This live webinar will show you what medical billing entails so that you can make an informed decision for your practice. It will cover the procedures that are routinely billable/payable under patient medical plans, including HMOs, PPOs, POSs, and others, including TriCare, and the steps involved to make sure medical billing is a success in your dental practice.

• Learn what procedures are billable and routinely paid by medical plans.
• Learn the ways in which the medical billing process is doctor-driven.
• Learn the steps you need to follow to be successful at medical billing.
