EP 88: The Cures Act, Chart Notes and Missing Patients

Another insurance nerd joins me on the podcast! Rick Garofolo of Practice Mechanics teaches me about the Cures Act – part of me wishes I didn’t know anything about it. BUT it’s important and we need to be compliant when it goes into effect. We also discussed some hot topics from his classes at the recent American Association of Dental Office Management’s Annual Conference. You may be surprised to learn how you should be tracking inactive patients. We talk about chart notes. I hope you get as excited as we did! 😄
