On August 20, 2008, Dr. Shelburne presented himself into federal prison after having been found guilty of Healthcare Fraud, Racketeering and Money Laundering. On May 14, 2010, he walked out having learned lessons the hard way that no dental professional ever wants to learn. This powerful, no-nonsense program pulls back the curtain on what really puts dental practice, the doctor and team at risk—and how to make sure it never happens to your.

From a legal perspective, if it’s not in the clinical record, it didn’t happen. Period. You didn’t see it, you didn’t say it, you didn’t do it—and it doesn’t exist. That reality can either destroy a practice or protect it.

This course delivers a practical, team-based approach to documentation and recordkeeping that protects, defends, and strengthens your practice. Because risk doesn’t stop with the doctor, the entire dental team is exposed. Learn how careful, concise, complete, and consistent records can be your strongest legal defense and the key to maximum legitimate reimbursement.

This isn’t theory. It’s real-world survival training for today’s dental practice.
