Join Your Smiling Lawyer, Natasha Gillis, Malika Azargoon your Dental Zorro and our **spotlight speaker, E. Andrew Gerner,** Certified Financial Planner and Vice President at R.K. Tongue Insurance  (endorsed by the Virginia Dental Association) for an engaging and informative discussion with practical insurance dental bites that you can easily digest and use in your everyday practice operations.  

In this segment, Andrew provides a quick summary of the top 4 issues that most dentists are asking, now:  1) Should I expect my malpractice insurer to defend me if a patient claims to have gotten infected with COVID-19 when visiting my office?; 2) Why can't I use business interruption insurance for COVID-19 related losses;  3) Considerations for employers v. practices who contract out services; and 4) Navigating liability minefields in light of PPE shortages.  Like what you heard?

DISCLAIMER:  This podcast should not be construed as providing legal advice but should be considered for educational purposes based on insurers that R.K. Tongue commonly works with and policies that they often broker.  These tips are intended to serve as "food for thought" to allow you to review your own policy and ask the right questions of your own insurance team.  Naturally, if you want to work with the RK Tongue team, feel free to reach out to them.
