D-Tech Business Concepts, LLC, (D-TECH) is pleased to announce that as of September 1, 2009, we will be offering our new medical/dental cross-coding services that will allow your office to submit dental procedure claims to a patient’s medical plan. By offering you this new service, D-Tech will make available to your office the ability to:



* Provide patients who are compromised medically by oral conditions the ability to tap into their medical benefits to help pay for their procedures.

* Yield increased revenues for your practice while experiencing wide case acceptance.


* Provide patients with a sense that your practice is willing to support their effort to secure medical benefits while also becoming and excellent marketing tool for your practice.


As you consider our new service, please see below a few of the procedures that would qualify:
