a cover story about responsibilities to patients when a dentist leaves the practice;
a case study in which a patient’s secret recordings absolve the dentist from alleged failure to diagnose bruxism;
a reminder about policy conditions related to patient refunds;
recommendations to consider before responding to unflattering online reviews;
an underwriting update about new options/savings through MLMIC’s 2017 New Dentist Discount Program;
a risk management tip on communication between referring and consulting dentists; and
a list of upcoming events.
You can access the full issue, which will also be mailed to policyholders, here.
Did you know that – unlike other carriers in New York’s medical malpractice marketplace –MLMIC’s entire underwriting and claims process is overseen and guided by physician peer review? Whether reviewing a prospective policyholder’s new application or performing a review of an existing policyholder’s underwriting record, physician peer review is the cornerstone of MLMIC’s underwriting philosophy.
MLMIC’s enhanced discount program offers new dentist graduates more options in choice and savings. It’s a cost-effective way to obtain malpractice insurance with the program designed by and for NYSDA members with New York State’s leading malpractice carrier.
