  This product is meant for Panoramic X-ray machines!  Tired of looking for the stapler you used last time you did a QA check of your Pano? We now have a solution for your pano QA/QC program. The large Step Wedge is specially designed for the pano QA/QC program. While staplers are still allowed, we find that people misplace the stapler or don't realize they need to use the same exact stapler every single time they perform Quality Assurance tests on their pano machines. Step Wedges are used in Radiology Quality Control Programs to test x-ray machine sensors and phosphor storage plates. Having a Radiology Quality Assurance Program is an important part of radiology compliance. Texas Dentists:  In June 2019 Texas x-ray rule 25 TAC §289.232(j)(14) was updated. It now specifies that users of digital imaging acquisition systems shall follow quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) protocol for digital imaging established by the manufacturer. If a protocol cannot be established by the manufacturer, it shall be developed and implemented by the registrant (dental office).  CLICK HERE FOR MORE TEXAS Specific RADIOLOGY REQUIREMENTS  Once a quarter or any time that you suspect that there may be a problem with your X-ray system, create an image to compare to your reference image. Step wedge images look like a grayscale image with gradual changes from white/light to black/dark. If you notice a change in density (color) of "2 steps", you are alerted that there is a problem and corrective actions should be taken before your radiographs deteriorate in diagnostic quality.

Section 6401 of the Affordable Care Act (“Obamacare”) requires healthcare providers and organizations that receive reimbursement directly or indirectly from Medicare, Medicaid (and other government healthcare programs including Medicare Advantage) to implement and maintain a compliance program that includes the OIG Compliance Guidelines (for Individual and Group Physician Practices and/or for Third-Party Billing Companies) depending on the practice/organization’s type, size and risks. Review the provider enrollment agreement you/your dentist signed to credential/re-credential with Medicare, Medicaid or other government healthcare programs. You will find you/your dentist attested to the government your practice/organization has an OIG compliance program like the one outlined below. If you don’t have one, it is high time you make it happen before you get busted for falsifying a government document, which is a crime (even if you didn’t realize you did it). The government does not tolerate liars/lying (false attestation).   The OIG’s Seven Fundamental Elements of an Effective Compliance Program include: Implementing written policies, procedures and standards of conduct. Designating a compliance officer and compliance committee. Conducting effective training and education. Developing effective lines of communication. Conducting internal monitoring and auditing. Enforcing standards through well-publicized disciplinary guidelines. Responding promptly to detected offenses and undertaking corrective action.  This manual can be used by participating and non-participating Dentists, Group Dental Practices, Dental Service Organizations and Third-Party Billing Companies who want to develop a strong Compliance Program to prevent the consequences of fraud, waste and abuse and demonstrate organizational integrity. The manual includes framework to outline help your practice/organization establish written policies, procedures and standards of conduct, designate a compliance officer (and compliance committee, as needed), facilitate effective compliance training and education, establish effective lines of communication (internal reporting process for employee concerns, which lessens the likelihood of whistleblower reports to the government), outlines auditing and monitoring processes, establishes a framework for enforcing your standards, and facilitates your responses and corrective action to detected violations of rules, regulations and your practice/organization’s internal standards.
