2010 ODA

ODA
Jennifer and I attended the ODA last Thursday and Friday. We had the opportunity to talk with a lot of dental assistants, hygienists, and dentists and are hoping some of them are future employees! I also had the opportunity to meet this adorable life-sized tooth! Although it’s not the most flattering picture of me, I think that she looks great!
Adjusting to MAH’s New Insurance Plan
February 3rd, 2010 by Kimberly Whitis
If you, like me, have signed up for MAH’s new health care plan, you are probably going through some adjustment pains adapting to the new plan.
The new plan does not have the co-pays that we have all become accustomed to, so now we need to begin using our bargain hunting skills in the medical marketplace.
I recently needed refills for a couple of prescriptions that last year had cost me about $35 per month. I was prepared for an increase, since the plan has a higher deductible than previous, but was frankly surprised at the full cost.
Here are a few suggestions to help deal with these costs:
1) Check with national pharmacies to see if your medication is on their $4 formulary list.
Walmart and Kroger have such lists. It may also pay to make sure your doctor knows that you are on a high deductible plan, so he or she can prescribe medications that are on the list. (Unfortunately, neither of my prescriptions are on the list – I plan to discuss this with my doctor the next time I see him).
2) Check the website of the drug manufacturer.
In my case, I take Lipitor to manage cholesterol. At http://www.lipitor.com:80/offers/index.aspx there are offers for a 30 Day free trial and a Co-pay card that is worth $15 each month for a total of $180 a year.
Health and pharmacy costs are constantly increasing, but if we take some simple steps, we can manage our personal situation to minimize the increases.

Technologically & Title-y Challenged
November 6th, 2009 by Kimberly Whitis
Rachele and I attended the OnRec Recruiting Conference in Chicago this week and had a great time. We learned quite a bit….mainly that we need to become more technologically mobile to keep up with the Millennials and/or Echo Boomers! In light of that I discovered the mobile app for Twitter and Facebook for my Blackberry during the conference. We didn’t realize we were so technologically out of touch until we were in a room filled with hundreds of tweeting people!
We also learned our “Recruiter” titles are outdated and have been replaced with snappy titles such as “Talent Acquisition” and “Talent Strategist”. I’m game so now it’s a matter of getting Mr. Murphy on-board with the change!
All in all we are planning to implement some great ideas we came up with this week. Stay tuned!
NCCHC Convention& Kentucky Jailers Conference
October 16th, 2009 by Kimberly Whitis
Patrick, Bill and Jose are off to the NCCHC Convention in Orlando next week. So as they are basking in the Florida sun the rest of us will remain in Indy basking in our 45 degree unseasonably cold weather. Thanks, gentlemen.
On a side note Cassandra was unable to attend the Kentucky Jailers Association Conference this week so she sent Luanne our Controller instead. Luanne attended the conference with Dawn our Western Kentucky Portable Route Dental Assistant. Both ladies have a wonderful sense of humor and very vivacious personalities so I’m sure they kept the Kentucky Sheriff’s amused over the past 3 days. Considering this was Luanne’s first MAH trade show we are all looking forward to the stories she will tell upon her return.
