Patient Complaints Webinar
Did you know that Dentists have one of the highest rates of complaints?
Dentists have one of the highest rates of regulatory complaints when compared to other health professions. In Queensland, the rate is ever higher, with more than 6% of Dentists receiving a complaint compared to the national average of 4.2%. The way you respond to a complaint can make all the difference.
Hear from leading insurance and legal experts at QBE, Hall & Wilcox and ADAQ about:
1. The reasons why patients complain.
2. Top tips on how to avoid complaints.
3. The complaints management process and case studies:
a. informal complaints (in-house management);
b. insurance claims (including interpreting your policy); and
c. regulatory notifications (OHO/AHPRA).
Complaints management knowledge is crucial for the entire team. This seminar is recommended to dentists and their practice staff, and with our distinguished speakers from QBE and Hall & Wilcox it is an event not to be missed.
