With nearly 20 years of experience and having worked with thousands of dental practices, Ben brings a practical, no-nonsense perspective to navigating third-party payors.

He shares actionable strategies for negotiating with payors, optimizing PPO participation, and strengthening practice revenue without compromising patient care.

Key takeaways:
