Description
Now in full color, The Administrative Dental Assistant is revised to reflect the latest information on operating a dental office. It's
logically organized to cover all of the various tasks an administrative dental assistant encounters. It includes up-to-date CDT-5 Dental
Codes, new HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) guidelines,
plus current examples of key equipment, forms, and computer technology. A companion CD-ROM simulates dental practice management, offering
opportunities to enter and update patient data, post payment and treatment procedures using dental codes, submit e-claims for payment,
evaluate reports, and schedule appointments.
