The Michigan Dental Association (MDA) has partnered with MEDVA to help dental practices overcome administrative staffing challenges by providing access to reliable, HIPAA-compliant remote support. This partnership reflects a shared mission: empowering dental teams to operate more efficiently and sustainably without compromising quality or compliance.
MEDVA, a physician-founded leader in HIPAA-compliant remote staffing, connects healthcare practices with trained professionals who support essential tasks such as billing, insurance coordination, patient scheduling, and records management. The partnership with MDA marks a major step forward in MEDVA’s mission to modernize healthcare operations while keeping patient care at the forefront.
“This partnership with MEDVA represents a practical solution to one of the most urgent challenges facing dental practices today: staffing. What sets MEDVA apart is their deep understanding of our industry’s day-to-day needs. They’re not offering automation—they’re delivering trained, real professionals who can step in and support overwhelmed teams with precision and care,” said Mark M. Johnston, DDS, Chair of MDA Insurance and MDA Services. “We’re proud to offer our members access to a partner that aligns with our commitment to quality, compliance, and the long-term success of Michigan dental practices.”
Already trusted by over 200 dental and orthodontic practices across the country, MEDVA’s remote team members integrate seamlessly into existing systems and support in-office staff by taking on time-consuming tasks with consistency, professionalism, and compliance.
MEDVA’s partnership with the Michigan Dental Association aims to ease the administrative burden on dental teams and address critical staffing shortages across the state.
“This collaboration helps dentists focus more on patient care by reducing back-office strain,” said Dr. Steven Kupferman, Co-Founder and Chairman of MEDVA.
Christine Kowalczyk, MEDVA CEO, added, “We’re providing a smarter, scalable staffing model that cuts burnout and supports long-term growth.”
Together, the MDA and MEDVA aim to help practices across Michigan tap into high-quality remote staffing solutions—backed by clinical insight, proven systems, and a people-first approach.
