Dental Billing Do's and Don'ts with Billing Coach-Mel Berg

03/25/23 • 37 min

As a Dental Billing Coach, I often have the pleasure of meeting other dental coaches who focus on the billing department. I love to discuss the challenges they see with the revenue cycle and how they address them. Some of the coaches I have met with, have extensive backgrounds in dentistry and recently took the leap into "dentalprenuer-ship".
This is the case with today's guest, Mel Berg. She has quite the experience in dental billing and has recently set up her coaching business. Make no mistake, this woman knows her stuff!
Listen to Mel and I have a casual yet informative conversation around dental billing do's and don'ts.

In this week's episode, Ericka has a conversation with Dr. Joshua Golden D.D.S. about his perspective on dental billing challenges in his practice. Dr. Golden has a beautiful practice in Sunrise, Florida called West Sunrise Dentistry. He takes pride in providing his patients with top-level dentistry. Insurance reimbursements are simply not cutting it when it comes to covering the costs of goods which leads to many frustrations for a Dentist and practice owner.
As billers, our job is to maximize every penny owed to the practice. Doctors appreciate these efforts as the dental insurance landscape continues to evolve less and less in the doctor's favor.
We hope you enjoy this conversation between Ericka and Dr. Golden! Please feel free to tell us any questions you have by sending us an email.
