Forensic expertise for the dental profession

I’m driven by a genuine commitment to helping people solve their most urgent and complex business challenges.

Since 2004 I’ve conducted hundreds of fraud investigations and supported dental professionals through high-stakes civil litigation. I co-founded Prosperident, a leading dental embezzlement investigation firm, before founding Hiltz & Associates to bring fraud investigation and dedicated digital forensics under one roof. My post-secondary and graduate education spans science, business, engineering, and information technology, a multidisciplinary foundation for tackling modern operational and forensic problems. I’m a recognized expert in embezzlement detection, investigation, and remediation, and a published author and speaker on fraud in healthcare settings. My work extends across digital forensics, healthcare fraud, audits, technology infrastructure, practice transitions, mergers & acquisitions, and a wide range of operational matters.
