Speaker Bio: 

Jennika Wildau has been in practice in the Boulder/Denver area for 10 years. Her one claim-to-fame is that she has a 100% insurance-related collections record – that is, she has never once been denied reimbursement for any treatment she has billed through insurance (gasp!). How does she do it? It’s all about knowing which assignments to accept by collecting relevant information before deciding whether to handle the billing. To find out more, come to the workshop!
