What Should We Automate — and What Still Needs a Human?
If technology pulls incomplete or incorrect information and nobody reviews it, the practice has not solved the problem.
Not every task is a good candidate for automation.
Workflow entry, missing-field detection, eligibility, benefit retrieval and data organization.
Plan limitations, provisions, network and codes, and data integrity.
A retrieval system can confirm a benefit exists. Is it based on rolling months?
Missing tooth clauses, downgrades and exclusions: what human review must determine.
Kyle has spent more than 25 years in dentistry. He started at the front desk, worked his way up to dental office manager, and became one of the most recognized voices in dental practice management.
As the founder of the Dental Office Managers Alliance, Kyle is focused on helping dental office managers strengthen leadership, systems, communication, team management, and daily operations through practical tools built around the realities of dental practice management.
