Much of this change comes with legal implications, and we’re going to devote this episode of  Filling You In with A-Squared to understanding how to adjust legal strategy with regard to what’s new with partnerships, compliance, and the governance of artificial intelligence. Our expert guide is Jena Taft, Senior Counsel in the Dental Service Organizations Industry Group at Dykema, a leading national law firm, who says the first step practices should take is to make sure their legal house is in order. “The most important thing you can do right now is look internally at what you've already got to make sure it is being done correctly and see how you can update it and fine tune it for current conditions.”In terms of the use of AI in dentistry, Jena stresses the importance of making adjustments with patient privacy in mind. “Many practices have never thought about AI being used to monitor patient calls and what extra problems that might bring.”Join hosts Dr. Anushka Gaglani and Dr. Abhishek Nagaraj of Areo Dental Group for a conversation that offers a wealth of knowledge on those topics, plus:The importance of robust compliance plans, The evolving nature of partnerships. Risk management for operations and executive teams.Mentioned in this episode:Dykema Law FirmAreo Dental Group
