Dental CE Course: Win-Win Practice Transitions: Maximize Value, Minimize Risk

This course is intended for general dentists and specialists contemplating an associateship, practice buy-in or merger, partnership, practice sale or purchase, entity formation or retirement, and their spouses, staff, and financial and legal advisors. "Win-Win Practice Transitions" presents case reviews to analyze issues every dentist must confront in his or her pursuit of personal and professional practice goals at times of transition. It imparts the level of knowledge required to competently enter into preliminary discussions regarding prospective opportunities, collaborate efficiently with advisors, and understand the rights, duties, and liabilities created in the process. This information will allow both buyers and sellers, along with their advisors, staff, and families to maximize the value and transfer of patient goodwill, minimize the legal and financial risks involved, and enable each to achieve personal and professional success as they define it.
