Episode Description from the Publisher

More management and insurance knowledge in my newsletter: https://www.odysseymgmt.com/newsletter   Most dentists think insurance is just malpractice coverage until a cyberattack shuts down the office or a flood destroys expensive equipment. And on that note, a missed premium payment can leave the practice completely uninsured. In this episode, Jack McKinney from TDIC Insurance Solutions explains the hidden gaps that can cost dental practices thousands of dollars and why office managers need to be involved in insurance conversations long before a crisis happens.    It may surprise you to know that relationships with insurance agents matter! They can tell you if your practice becomes dangerously underinsured as they grow. It can happen when adding services like Botox or expanding office space. Jack explains the realities of property insurance, cyber insurance, disability coverage, workers compensation, EPLI, and business interruption coverage while sharing real world examples of practices discovering costly gaps only after disaster strikes. We talk about scary ransomware too - it's real and it's out there.
