The Xtraordinary Indemnity Programme for the Whole Practice
DPL Xtra is a practice based indemnity programme from Dental Protection which rewards commitment to good practice and a team approach to risk management.
DPL Xtra offers the following membership benefits:
Xtraordinary subscriptions for practice employees
We believe that a DPL Xtra practice will work with us to maintain a safer environment for all those DPL members in their team. We reward this commitment by reducing the subscriptions payable by dentists, hygienists, therapists, orthodontic therapists and clinical technicians working in the practice.
Xtraordinary online support for practice managers
Keeping up-to-date with the ever changing employment and health and safety legislation can be challenging, but failing to do so can be costly. DPL understands that many practices will not have the resources, or the time to review complex new legislation and how to implement it. That is why we have developed DPL Xtra Practice Manager, a one-stop shop that can keep you up to date with the latest developments of which every healthcare provider needs to be aware.
Xtraordinary free membership for all employed, registered dental nurses and dental technicians
The number of complaints and GDC investigations involving dental nurses and dental technicians are on the increase and 80% of all cases handled by DPL aren’t related to clinical negligence. Having indemnity for clinical negligence alone simply isn’t enough.
DPL Xtra gives you the peace of mind that all your employed, registered dental nurses and dental technicians have full membership with DPL including additional risks and accountability such as GDC investigations, complaints and inquests.
Xtraordinary risk management support for the whole dental team
Dental Protection believes that prevention is better than cure. The DPL Xtra practice programme provides a wide range of free of heavily discounted risk management solutions from interactive CD ROMS and seminars to practice visits to e-publications which are suitable for all members of the dental team. This educational resource also provides free verifiable CPD for all registered members of the team.
