		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s been a very busy year for the RCL dental consulting practice, culminating in a couple of big events this summer. First, the 2010 version of the Dental PPO Network Study was released, and included the largest group of companies the study has ever had. Since then I&#8217;ve been kept hopping reviewing the results with [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[2011 is starting off with a bang for the RCL dental practice, as I have plans for three industry studies during the year. First is the ever popular PPO Network Study. This will look and function much as it has in past years. I am expecting largely the same group of participating companies, with some [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am addicted to the New York Times, especially the magazines. I love looking at the ads for expensive things I would never buy, and pictures of Rockefeller descendents more dressed up for their 10th benefit this month than I will be in my whole life. So I couldn&#8217;t resist this Samurai Shopper column on my other [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few months ago, I completed RCL&#8217;s sixth annual DPPO Network Study. The study looks at network value &#8211; from discounts and network usage &#8211; across the industry based on claims from almost 20 carriers. After pulling together specific reports for each company participating in the study, I stepped back to take a look at [...]]]></description>
