Every 14 seconds a dental patient walks into an emergency room with a dental emergency. To reduce risk and assist the dental industry during the COVID-19 pandemic, tab32 announces the release of a new tele-dentistry product. As an end-to-end solution, this product creates a seamless experience from online appointment booking to secure, HIPAA compliant video chatting and concludes with billing.
Similar to all tab32 products, the video chat is mobile-friendly. Dentists have the ability to virtually chat with their patients from any device, anywhere. tab32’s Teledent is 100% HIPAA compliant and secure. It enables doctors to communicate with existing patients, qualify new patients and determine “emergency status.”
With the booking module, patients can securely add emergency notes to their virtual appointment for review prior to the appointment.
Why Tele-Dentistry now?
- Dental Insurances are paying for Limited, Emergency and Tele-Dental Services
- Any patient can schedule the call online before coming in, to reduce risk from contracting or spreading COVID-19
- Non-Clinical staff can work from home to also reduce exposure
- Patients can pre-pay for their appointments while using the online booking module, and payment posts same-day to the dentist's business account
In these ever changing times, dental businesses will have to adapt, whether they are a single, group or DSO practice. Tele-dentistry elevates the patient's experience and promotes engagement. It adds additional revenue sources for patient acquisition and cultivates a strong brand and reputation.
tab32 is the industry's #1 patient-first cloud dental electronic health record software (Dental EHR) and Dental Practice Management System (Dental PMS).
tab32 products sit on Google's truly cloud-based infrastructure and are developed within Google’s technology stack.
