Alumni Insurance Roundtable Webinar


Guest: Dr. Laura Wittenauer, Dr. Rajeev Upadya, Larry Guzzardo
Release Date: September 2014

Patients love having dental coverage and employers compete for employees by subsidizing these benefits; all the while insurance companies profit handsomely connecting everyone through networks. Every single dental practice is affected by 3rd party dental benefit plans on a daily basis and this subject is the focus of many questions The Dawson Academy faculty receive at each of our courses.

Dr. Wittnauer and Dr. Upadya bring Middle America plus East and West Coast perspectives, including being in and out of network, transitioning to fee-for-service, and working in both associate and group practices. As a practice management consultant, Larry Guzzardo has worked with scores of dentists throughout the country helping them choose a strategy that works best for their situation. He also helps dentists implement plans to grow their practices while serving their patients’ best interests.
