American Dental Association Event
An important business decision any dentist makes is whether or not to sign a PPO agreement. There are many considerations a dentist should take into account before signing. This webinar will discuss typical processing policies utilized by PPO plans and their potential financial implications on a dental practice, including, downcoding, bundling and least expensive alternative treatment (LEAT) clauses. In addition, dentists will receive information on:
• Questions to ask before signing an agreement

ADA leadership continues to hear your feedback on these issues and has taken action to assist dental offices with dental benefit issues.
