Psimer Eduational Event

The Death of Traditional PPO Negotiation webinar. Thursday, August 20, 2026 at 11:00 AM Eastern Time. Presented by Psimer and Associates, the Academy of Dental CPAs, and Solutions 101.

The question has changed

A better fee schedule does not always mean better reimbursement.

Most PPO negotiations still begin with a saved, shared, or known fee schedule. That information may be useful—but it does not show which plans and employer groups will actually access the contract, whether the carrier will apply the schedule, or how those same claims may pay through a different contracting position.

That gap is why many traditional negotiations look promising on paper but produce limited results on the accounting side.

A fee schedule is a possible rate.
An EOB is evidence of how the market actually behaved.

What the class will reveal

See beyond the saved or known fee schedule.

01

Active plan and employer-group payment behavior

Identify which plans and employer groups are actually paying in the market—not merely which rates appear on an isolated fee schedule.

02

Contracts and networks actually being accessed

Understand which network relationships are influencing the claim and whether the proposed fee schedule is likely to be used.

03

Reimbursement differences hidden behind one carrier name

See how provider, location, employer group, plan design, and contracting path can produce materially different reimbursement.

04

A more realistic view of the financial outcome

Test whether a projected increase is supported by actual paid-claim behavior before changing the practice’s contracting position.
