Description

An insurance course launched in 2023, to be held in-person at the Annual Meeting in Toronto, will discuss best practices for submitting insurance claims and proper coding by learning from a case study discussion of insurance claims, with insight from the AAP’s Insurance Consultant and Third Party Specialist, as well as representatives from insurance carriers. Cases will highlight the appropriateness of submission, reasons for denial, and issues to avoid when submitting a claim. Topics covered will include: soft tissue grafts, peri-implantitis and peri-implant mucositis, bone grafting around teeth and implants, and administrative issues. A Q&A session will allow attendees to ask questions specific to their practices.
