Critical Legal Issues Facing Dentists and Specialists

Dental law attorney David Aafedt will present on critical legal issues facing dentists and specialists at a Saint Paul District Dental Society event on October 15, 2018. David is well known to the SPDDS membership, and represents dentists, specialists and other healthcare providers in a variety of capacities, including litigation and enforcement proceedings, healthcare licensing board investigations, compliance and regulatory matters, as well as federal, state, and private payer billing audits and investigations.

About the program

Your practice is governed by a complex set of federal and state laws, as well as contractual obligations. David’s session will provide an update on third-party and public program payer audits; recent material developments before the Minnesota Board of Dentistry; the practical and legal issues facing practices as a result of ever-present cybersecurity threats, including how to respond when the inevitable breach occurs; and the opioid crisis and the investigative and enforcement trends by the Board and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).

Registration

Registration for this event is now open on the SPDDS website. Two fundamental continuing education credits will be given to attendees.
