The potential financial, emotional and physical damages incurred by an infection control breach are huge. With over 76% of dental practices failing at compliance audits, this is very concerning as it indicates a large majority are at risk and potentially not even aware they are doing anything wrong.
Regulatory obligations state that dental practitioners must practice in a way that maintains and enhances public health and safety minimizing or preventing the spread of infectious diseases. This includes not just having procedures in place, but ensuring that the whole team follows these in every instance.
The Prime Practice Compliance team can protect dental practices against legal costs and claims for negligence.
Prime Practice offer an excellent risk prevention tool for Australian dentists. This incorporates a compliance and infection control workshop, which together with the Dental Professional Indemnity Insurance product that EGIS distributed, can protect you and your practice to eliminate the risk of infections and meet the compliance standards.
The powerful combination of these two products, and the expected reduction in practice risk, plus an expected improvement in the performance of the dental practice, allows for a significant rebate to be passed to you.
