Get ready to demystify the labyrinth of dental billing changes coming in 2024! You'll gain invaluable insights into the American Dental Association's new service category, Sleep, and how this addition increases the dental categories to a total of 13. We'll break down how these extra codes can lead to more precise interactions with providers and patients, and why this doesn't automatically mean insurance payouts will increase. 

Then, we'll pivot to understanding the intricacies of the 2024 claim form, shedding light on the new boxes and their role in speeding up the claim process. You'll understand why it's crucial to get your practice management software updated with the 2024 claim form. We'll delve into new additions such as Box 3A and 11A, which require payer IDs, and Box 39A, which demands the last date of scaling and root planning. We'll also unravel the complex concept of locum tenens, and the introduction of the new Box 53A to identify temporary providers. So, tune in and arm yourself with the knowledge to navigate these changes smoothly!
