Dental Embezzlement and Fraud

Statistics show that nearly 40 percent of dental practices will become victims of dental embezzlement costing them upwards of $250,000 on average. More often than not, the emotional toll of being defrauded by a long-time, trusted employee is equally devastating to the practice as the monetary loss.

Despite the alarmingly high possibility of this occurring, most dentists don’t think they will fall victim to dental embezzlement and therefore lack the internal controls to prevent it.

Whether you’re being proactive by putting internal controls in place, or dealing with the realization that an employee is stealing from you, Doeren Mayhew stands ready to provide valuable insight into the situation. Composed of dental CPAs and Certified Fraud Examiners, our Dental Division harnesses the necessary audit experience to prevent and discover dental embezzlement in your practice.
