Navigating the Mysteries of EOBs

(Explanation of Benefits)

Previously Recorded Self- Study





Join us as Colleen Huff, FAADOM - Dental Insurance Coach, provides an overview

of the explanation of benefits to ensure you keep revenue in your office. You will

leave with a better understanding of terminology, adjustments and denials as well as a coordination of benefits through an interactive review.


Explanation of Benefits are confusing and difficult to understand. Team members are often unaware of how to interpret the explanation. Let's take the mystery out of the EOB's for both you and your patients.


In this seminar you will learn:

  • Terminology
  • Adjustments - Making sure you are charging your patients correctly
  • Denials - Learn ways to maximize the insurance for your patients
  • Coordination of Benefits - utilizing regular and non-duplication to benefit both patient & office
  • Interactive review of actual EOB's with Q & A
  • Trends in dental insurance

Ensure your patients receive the full benefits from their insurance, enabling them to complete necessary procedures. How we track and enter treatment is essential to the success of a practice. Additionally, insurance coordinators collect what the office produces and your dental team must be compensated accordingly. This seminar will clarify terms and assist you in collecting from the insurance company all that is owed to you and your patient.


Target Audience:

  • Dentists
  • Practice Administrators
  • Insurance Coordinators
  • Administrative Team Members
