About this listen

Pretty much every American has had at least one negative run-in with their medical or dental insurance, but it wasn't always like this. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Paul Henny, a fee-for-service dentist who transitioned away from accepting dental insurance and all its limitations.

We talk a bit about how insurance companies transitioned from focusing on patient care to financial gain and some of the sneaky tactics they use. Dr. Henny also shares what it was like to move from accepting insurance to going fully fee-for-service and why he chose to make the change. Plus, in this episode we discuss the overall increasing corporatization of both medical and dental services, and how practitioners can shift to a more patient-centered approach.
