Smarter, Faster, and Entirely Connected
One connected practice management system combines clinical, business, and financial processes to counter pain points and streamline workflows
Dental technology has the power to enhance practice efficiency, boost your bottom line, and connect you to more patients than ever before—but only if it works together. Standalone technology often creates more hardships than benefits, with dental teams needing to re-enter data and duplicate processes because their tools do not sync up.
Henry Schein formed a new joint venture, Henry Schein One, to address these obstacles. Henry Schein One's vision is to deliver innovation in dental software and services, combined with expert business coaching, to help connect dental technology so it works as one. Through its growing portfolio of business, clinical, and financial solutions, Henry Schein One can help simplify each step of the patient journey—from practice marketing, patient check-in, and diagnostic imaging to billing, insurance claims, recalls, and loyalty.
An Evolving Practice Hub
The Dentrix platform, which has been streamlining and simplifying dental office operations for over 3 decades, continues to meet changing practice needs. Its latest innovation is Dentrix Smart Image, which links clinical and financial processes into one efficient workflow by connecting with leading imaging vendors, such as Dentsply Sirona, DEXIS, and Planmeca. Smart Image allows diagnostic images to be acquired directly from the Dentrix platform and then posts them to places like the ledger, patient recare records, and progress notes.
“Smart Image 2.0 is proof of our commitment to deliver technology innovation and improvement to every aspect of practice management,” said Jon Koch, Senior Vice President and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein's Global Dental Group. “These new automations to the clinical and financial workflow give dental teams additional tools to be more efficient and enhance their ability to provide quality patient care.”
In addition to Smart Image, Dentrix also continues to strengthen its suite of integrated eServices that interface directly with Dentrix, enabling office teams to enhance their productivity. These revenue cycle management solutions allow practices to get paid sooner through automated billing and collections workflows.
Henry Schein One also has a powerful cloud-based practice management system, Dentrix Ascend. Using a reimagined user interface, Dentrix Ascend employs advanced technology so that dentists can safely store data in the cloud, and users across multiple locations can access the platform through a single database.
The patient journey is now more efficient than ever, but for the dental practice, it all begins with a robust marketing plan. Henry Schein One offers several webbased marketing solutions, such as Lighthouse 360 and Demandforce, that seamlessly integrate with Dentrix and other platforms to help boost practice reputation and improve patient communication and loyalty.
