continuing education update What's New in Continuing Education? Keep up-to-date with our Dentaltown CE offerings. Here are some new additions and some of my favorites. Just a reminder that every course released since December 2011 is viewable on your iPad and Android tablets! I also want to extend an invitation to active Townies.

The 180-Degree Dental Journey: Part Two: Benchmarks and Financial Strategies by Dr. Michael Abernathy More competition, fewer dollars spent on health care, intrusions from corporate practices and insurance companies means we have to be at the top of our dental game. It is time to design a business model for dentistry that will not only compete in this economy, but actually guarantee predictive growth while lowering overhead and stress. No business should try to compete without challenging benchmarks. Once you have your target in the form of various benchmarks, you need to build your business model with a sound financial system. At the end of this training session, you will have black and white goals and targets to guide you in your pursuit of growth. This session starts with all things financial and ensures that your office will have the tools to do treatment estimates, insurance processing, 100 percent collections, patient financing and proper accounts receivable management. Multi-million dollar practices are guided by these financial policies, and you will be exposed to all things financial in a Super General Dental Practice.
