The Value of Compliance

Whether you choose a proactive or reactive program, we strive to partner with our clients to help make their organization safer for everyone including dentists, patients and staff.

For some this is being available to help when something happens (reactive).

For others, it is about systematically evaluating and re-evaluating compliance systems to identify whether the organization is still on target or effecting changes where there are needed.We get that it is often difficult to realize the Return on Investment of money spent on compliance and risk management. We know a substantial ROI exists. However, we hope our clients never truly realize the true ROI of their compliance efforts because that would mean they are in trouble. Your organization's compliance efforts can reduce fines and penalties by up to 90%. (proactive)

There are those who get it and there are those who don’t. We work with those who get it that compliance and risk management efforts are vital to the ongoing success of the dental practice/organization. It makes no sense to practice dentistry or run such a business without insurance. It also makes no sense to practice without effective compliance systems.

The Challenge

Dentists and DSOs are required to comply with a multitude of rules and regulations.
How do you and your dental team keep up with OSHA; infection prevention and control; HIPAA; controlled substance/prescribing practices; sedation safety/medical emergency preparedness?
Do you have systems in place?
Are those systems regularly reviewed and updated?
How do you hold your staff accountable to the high standards you have set for your dental practice or DSO?

Let's be honest, you cannot do it alone!
Unless you have a full-time compliance officer, there is no way you are keeping up with your compliance systems, which are as important as your liability insurance for protecting yourself, your patients and employees.
Even WITH a full time compliance officer your compliance efforts may be lacking if you fail to understand the gaps in your efforts.

You need help and we just might be the help you're looking for!
