Insurance Part I: Basic Setup & Estimating

You MUST be an ACTIVE member of Club Lighthouse to attend this seminar! Before you register, make sure that you are - there will be no refund of the Club Member discount ($5.50) if you register without verifying your Club status. To verify:

  1. Go to www.lighthouse-pmg.com/club
  2. Enter your username and password on the right side of the screen and [Login].
  3. If you see any message that says there was a problem, call 888-427-5454 extension 1.

All times are EASTERN TIME.

This is a 90-120 minute on-line seminar. You'll login, call a LONG DISTANCE number (i.e., not toll-free) to join a conference call, and we'll begin the seminar at the scheduled start time.

To make sure you're not going to have any problems, you should login to the "video" portion at least 20 minutes early: you'll see a Lighthouse screen with some information about the seminar and a clock showing the time, so you'll know when we're going to start. All the details for logging in and connecting to the conference call will be e-mailed to you a few days before the seminar. You can also get them now, by clicking on the "Connection Details" link below, under "Facilities."

This is Part I of a three part seminar dealing with Insurance.

  1. Part I: Insurance Setup & Estimating (Traditional Plans)
  2. Part II: Insurance Setup and Estimating (PPO-type Plans)
  3. Part III: Insurance Follow-up, Maintenance and Miscellaneous (All Plans)

Don't attend Part II without previously attending Part I! There are too many details about basic setup in Part I that you'll need for Part II, and they will NOT be repeated in Part II.

Registration Fee
The standard fee is $55, but everyone gets the 10% Club Lighthouse discount, resulting in a $49.50 fee.

Here's the agenda:

  1. How everything fits together - Patients, Insured Parties, Employer/Plans and Insurance Companies - and what happens if someone in your office doesn't really understand this.

    1.a. Setting up Security to prevent problems

    1.b. Cleaning up the duplicate companies that you almost certainly have.

  2. How the estimating works (most people don't understand this, even if they think they do!)

    2.a. Using the Blue Book to get, then maintain, accurate estimating (even though your PW trainer probably told you to NEVER use the Blue Book!)

  3. Using the estimating at each check-out, and seeing exactly where that figure comes from!
  4. Using Pre-Determinations (I know... you've been told by everyone and their brother not to do Pre-D's...)
  5. Questions and Answers

You should have a good speaker phone for each computer, OR have each person call the conference number (but since it's not toll-free, you'll be paying for each one of the long distance calls).
