The Value of Compliance
For some this is being available to help when something happens (reactive).
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!
The solution
The Compliance Advantage Program (CAP) is our all inclusive, hands-on, full support, flagship compliance program. CAP clients get full access to our team and resources. Available for Medicaid and Non-Medicaid providers. The Compliance Advantage Program is a customizable program designed for Dentists.
Dentists and Dental Service Organizations seek certification to demonstrate to their patients and their communities their commitment to quality and safety through high infection prevention and control standards. This certification is unique and allows dental offices to differentiate themselves from their competition.
Your charts are your biggest point of liability. Ever wonder if your charts are missing something? Getting too many denials on claims? On payment hold or recoupment with Medicaid or an insurance company? We offer chart audits/ record audits and training to help you improve your charting and give you peace of mind.
