Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Part 1, Tracy and Rob examine the Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners’ handling of a dentist’s billing for regional block anesthesia. They discuss the ADA ethical principle to “code for what you do,” why a procedure being excluded from most dental plans does not make the code improper, and how Arizona’s non-covered services law may apply. They also address a troubling question: How did this matter progress when the Board reportedly did not initially recognize that regional block anesthesia had its own dental code?
