The 2023 Oklahoma Dental Association Annual Meeting
Since the Oklahoma Dental Association’s (ODA) inception over a century ago, it has pursued its goal of improving oral health by providing dental education and care to underserved populations across the state of Oklahoma.
As first-time exhibitors at the ODA Annual Meeting, our LIBERTY Dental Plan (LIBERTY)?team made a big impression at a show?that values?a local approach. With our designation as one of Oklahoma’s new dental plan administrators for its SoonerSelect Medicaid program, we were ready to recruit providers and educate them on the advantages of becoming a provider for LIBERTY Dental Plan.
Our Oklahoma team set up a pull-up banner listed LIBERTY’s provider value propositions and directed participants to our Provider Recruitment page, while the Dr. Deren cardboard cutout was a fun conversation starter that traveled the show, posing for pictures and making new friends. We also prepared giveaways such as branded socks, water bottles, and dental kits to booth visitors and raffled off prizes.
Patient Retention
Our Oklahoma staff spoke to attending providers about the advantages of contracting with LIBERTY including:
-???????Peer-to-Peer Advising
-???????Member Advertising for All Office Locations
-???????An Enhanced Self-Service Provider Portal that has 24/7 Access
-???????A Highly Trained Member Services Team for all Provider Needs and Issues
“I have been very impressed with LIBERTY’s forward thinking and adoption of modern approaches to delivering care in an increasingly complex world,” said Dr. Deren Flesher, DDS , Dental Director of LIBERTY Dental Plan of Oklahoma.???
We also pitched the benefits of participating in our incentive-based programs that reimburse providers for improved outcomes and as well as administering preventative services, educating on dental homes, and encouraging healthy behaviors for patients. Our programs allow us to recognize and reward our high-performing providers through our Platinum Practices program, which reduces administrative burden and increases membership retention. ?
Our unique understanding of the challenges our providers face helps us drive change and quality improvements.
“It is a privilege to be serving our Oklahoma providers through our partnership with the Oklahoma Health Care Authority. LIBERTY’s goal is to make this transition smooth and with as little impact to participating providers and their staff as possible. My team’s hope is to create deep relationships with our provider network, be of help whenever the need arises and to listen to the dental community on how we can make positive changes,” said Michelle Eubanks , Director of Provider Services.
