I started my dental career as an Office Manager in a practice in St. Louis, MO. As dental insurance regulations were on the rise and reimbursements were drastically decreasing, my practice recognized the need to position ourselves in a way to remain successful amidst all the changes. Our solution was to offer an in-office membership program to retain and open our doors to patients without or frustrated with dental insurance and in need of high quality dental care. We started an in-office membership program called Smile Advantage.
I am now the program director of Smile Advantage, a nationwide company working with hundreds of dental practices. Smile Advantage is an industry leader in custom, in-office membership programs. Our team of dental professionals truly understand the dental market and can help educate and train today’s dental practice on how to design an effective membership program, offering a common-sense alternative to dental insurance for patients and providers.

Practicing dental sleep medicine is a goal for many, but a reality for few. The complexity of the reimbursement process has provided enough frustration that many dental offices abandon the potentially lifesaving and profitable area of practice.
I’ve developed strategies designed to connect the essential services patients require to the well-deserved reimbursement. Having educated offices nationally, they now understand how to establish functional and sustainable billing protocols for sleep apnea, focusing on proper medical documentation and the break-down of policies for Medicare and private insurances. Medical coding and billing is often last picked for the proverbial dodge ball game because big insurance doesn’t seem to want us to understand the process. However, that is all medical billing is – a process, and it can be learned.
If you looking to implement dental sleep medicine into your practice, are struggling with workflow of dental sleep medicine or have an established practice that needs to advance to the next level, I have established highly effective processes and have the knowledge to share so you can implement DSM to the highest level of care for your patients. Let’s educate your chapter on where to start!
In addition to speaking and consulting roles, I am on the Provider Outreach and Education committee for Medicare DME for Jurisdictions A, D, have co-authored an e-book Medicare: What Every Dentists Needs to Know NOW, and a contributing author of The Clinician’s Handbook for Dental Sleep Medicine, by Dr. Ken Berley and Dr. Steve Carstensen. I am active in the WNY Chapter of AADOM as vice-president, a Fellow of AADOM, faculty of Dental Medical University and a founding facilitator of the American Academy of Dental Sleep Medicine Mastery series while holding a position with a practice exclusive to treating sleep apnea, putting theory into practice every day.
