2024 Consortium Pilot Delivers Expanded Professional Development

NADP’s inaugural consortium set a high standard for professional development, earning widespread praise from participants. An impressive 92% of 2024 attendees said they would recommend future consortium participation, highlighting the value of this new program.

Focused on addressing a pressing industry challenge—loss ratios—the consortium provided a unique learning experience tailored to member plans. Over 97% of participants expressed satisfaction with the six online sessions, which covered a range of essential topics related to loss ratio implementation.

Facilitated by Milliman, the sessions included:

• Nuts & Bolts of MLR Reporting
• Operational Trade-Offs: Lowering Administrative Costs vs. Issuing Rebates
• Product Design Changes to Meet MLR Requirements
• Quality Improvement Activities
• Communicating About MLR with Members, Providers, and Brokers
• Contracting Implications of MLR

Building on this success, NADP is excited to announce the 2025 consortium theme: Navigating Dental Access, Provider Networks, and Regulatory Compliance Nationwide. Stay tuned for details about this valuable program, designed to address emerging challenges in our industry.
