Welcome solo and group practice owners! We are Liath Dalton and Evan Dumas, your co-hosts of Group Practice Tech.

In our latest episode, we offer some helpful tips for Good Faith Estimates, or GFEs. 

We discuss the No Surprises Act; where to provide a Good Faith Estimate; who gets a GFE; when to provide a GFE to clients; notices vs. contracts; how to list your rates and estimated costs; GFE dispute processes; documenting GFEs; how often to update GFEs; client education; what to do about listing a diagnosis; and getting your GFE reviewed.
