 g EducationRegistration will open August 2026Description: Money talk in th
 e dental office doesn’t have to be awkward or overwhelming. In this course
 \, we’ll walk through the full journey of a dollar in your practice—from t
 reatment plan to paid in full—and show how insurance\, documentation\, and
  collections all fit together. You’ll see examples of “clean claim” habits
 \, easy‑to‑follow systems\, and simple report checks that keep cash flow s
 teady and predictable. We’ll also look at how smarter documentation and ne
 w technologies can make claims less painful for everyone. Then we’ll tackl
 e the tricky part: what to say when patients have questions about their be
 nefits and out‑of‑pocket costs. Let’s help our teams to feel confident dis
 cussing both treatment and money.Objectives:Improve your financial arrange
 ments to improve collections and case acceptance.Implement systems that re
