Description

Let's face it — nobody likes compliance courses. They’re typically boring and monotonous and can feel like pulling teeth (pun intended!). Amy breaks through the barrier of boring compliance “geek speak” and uses real-life case studies, experiences and humor to make the information clear, easy to retain and even enjoyable. Learn some HIPAA basics, how they have changed over the years, and what is reasonable and appropriate for your size of practice. Amy will break down what is applicable to your dental practice and give you some easy tips to get (and stay) compliant.
