Efficient Flow
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when patients think of your office’s check-in process? Stacks of tedious paperwork - a total drain that patients want offices to do away with. Maybe you’ve even had patients switch dentists just for a smoother check-in experience. You can probably guess what they’re wanting to avoid - the lengthy time it takes to fill out forms, being called back for missing signatures, having to pull out their ID, insurance card, medication list for scanning into the system, ambiguity on insurance coverage, and waiting forever to be called in for the exam. What’s it like with paperless forms? Patients receive intake forms digitally via text or email, and complete them at home from any device. They capture and upload their ID, insurance card, photo, medication list, and any other requested documents. Once e-signed and submitted, your office receives it for approval, to have it seamlessly integrated right into your practice management system (Open Dental, Eaglesoft, Dentrix, and Dolphin). What this means for the patient is - no more clipboards, missing or illegible information, or scanning documents. And, the automated system easily facilitates fast insurance eligibility verification before the visit, to significantly cut down waiting room time. Paperless forms streamline the process to give patients the convenience they’re craving.Happier Patients
Your dental practice’s success is completely dependent on patients - right? So, it’d make complete sense to cater to what patients want. Knowing that paperless forms cut down 35% of documentation time, and reduce 80% of waiting room time - it becomes a no-brainer why so many offices make the switch.
Patients become loyal when they feel that their convenience and time are valued. Giving patients the self-serve option of form completion remotely, along with capturing and uploading all documents while on their sofa - saves them so much time and hassle.
With paperless forms, patient information directly syncs into the office’s practice management system, sparing patients from having to wait on your front office to enter data, or scan documents. It’s a total win-win for patients and staff.
