title: Managing money flow to safeguard your practice.
abstract: Whether payments for service come in the form of patient cash or checks, or insurer payments, it is paramount that a doctor implement a strong accounting system to disclose all daily financial transactions. It is also essential that a strong audit trail be part of this accounting system. By taking a few minutes at the end of each day to do the necessary review, dentists protect their income and provide one of the best protections an owner can have against embezzlement. Let the staff know you are on top of the books!
