Best Practices in Membership Plan Revenue Cycle Management

Streamlining Membership Plan Revenue and Production: Best Practices and Common Challenges

Membership plans are becoming increasingly popular in the dental industry, as they offer patients an affordable way to receive regular dental care and help dental practices build a loyal patient base. However, managing membership plans can be a complex and time-consuming process for dental teams. In this presentation, we'll explore some best practices for managing membership plans and common challenges that dental teams may face.

Course Learning Objectives:

To provide dental teams with best practices for managing membership plan payments, specifically how to keep the patient ledger clean and accurate.
To highlight common challenges that dental teams may face when managing membership plans and to offer a different way of thinking about what a membership plan is; how it should mimic insurance with regards to eligibility, production, and collections.
To provide solutions for addressing these challenges, especially for compensating providers and tracking accurate production.

QUICKcast begins at 3:30 pm Eastern on our AADOM Facebook Page, the AADOM LinkedIn Page, and the AADOM YouTube Channel

LIVEcast: Generational Geopardy - Achieving Practice Wellness 11/8/2023 1:00 PM - 11/8/2023 2:00 PM

Generational Geopardy - Achieving Practice Wellness

Are your patients and team members’ experiences meeting generational expectations?

The shift from product-centric to people-centric means younger generations expect ongoing coaching, mentorship, and upskilling. Speaking the right generational language can reduce team turnover and attract new employees.

Practices have four generations in their workforce, and generational friction can hurt the practice. To bridge the divide, everyone must recognize and embrace generational differences.

Dental practices must master mobile platforms to accommodate smartphone communication demands and stay competitive. Attendees will learn how to identify generational markers and reduce friction points to improve practice culture.

Magic happens when we connect beyond our professional roles and support our differences.

Course Learning Objectives:

Cultivate a generationally perceptive practice to create desirable employee experiences
Utilize onboarding as a tool for connection and retention
Implement high-level generational communication and marketing strategies
Devise tactics to improve chronic turnover, low engagement, and stagnant/declining production

LIVEcast begins at 1:00 pm Eastern on our AADOM Facebook Page, the AADOM LinkedIn Page, and the AADOM YouTube Channel

Topic: Coordination of Benefits Deconstructed - What the COB?!

Speaker: Tiffany Wesley, FAADOM

Upon completion of this course, participants will be able to:

Determine the order to send claims
Understand the #1 Missed Billing step and why it matters

Determine a true overpayment
Calculate patient responsibility and adjustments correctly
