Rose Nierman has more experience teaching dental practices the correct and most efficient ways to implement a successful medical billing protocol than any other group. In fact, her name has become synonymous with cross-coding & medical billing in dentistry.

Ms. Nierman pioneered the cross-coding field in dentistry in 1988 by writing the first manual and software for cross-coding, and sharing her knowledge across the country to dental practices seeking to bill medical insurance for TMJ treatment.

Since that time, Nierman Practice Management has become a major resource for dental practices offering medically necessary services.

Ms. Nierman stays on the cutting edge of current medical billing knowledge, and presents the most ethical protocols for billing.
