A new solution for Dentrix eCentral Web Site Manager gives practices the ability to collect forms electronically from patients in the office.
Clinicians can now take advantage of the new patient kiosk solution for the Dentrix eCentral Web Site Manager.
Patients can now complete forms at home or in the dental office on a touch screen monitor, desktop computer or even a tablet PC for a faster check-in process and a better overall patient experience. Adding a Dentrix-integrated kiosk to a practice’s reception area lets patients fill out forms electronically, importing the information directly into Dentrix in seconds, without any manual entry by the office staff.
Receiving patient data electronically helps expedite the appointment process, allowing treatment to begin faster and keeping appointments on schedule. The patient kiosk also helps eliminate data entry errors, reducing the number of rejected insurance claims and helping practices maintain better contact with patients. Staff members can review information before accepting it into Dentrix, so practices still control the information going into patient files.
The patient kiosk is sold as software only or with a turnkey hardware solution. Desktop and stand-alone versions are available, both with touch-screen capabilities. —Julie Schmitt
