Is there a tab within dentally where you can document the hygiene prescription from a dentist that enables you at a glance to see when the prescription expires?
It would be extremely useful to be able to colour code the different “kinds of correspondance” as it makes it immediately obvious without having to change the filter what is what. Example: If we attach an incoming referral from the hospital or another dental practice, it would be nice to just scroll down to the latest e.g. red colour knowing that it is a referral, it saves time and navigating would be immedate with less clicks here and there. Seconds matter when we’re moving around the system It would be useful if we can FORCE a clinician to look at an important “kind of correspondance” when the patient next comes for an exam. Example: An important referral from the hospital has been added to the correspondance. Rather than having to create yellow sticky notes etc, if we want to make sure that the dentist sees and does not miss the referral during the next “exam” appointment, it would be nice to add a feature to “upload new document” screen or any of the “kind of correspondance” s
We have noticed if a patient has more than 5 appointments, they don’t all print out. Is there a way to get it print all appointments when there are more than 5? I dealt with a patient who had to book 9 appointments and i was unable to print them all out.Many thanks.
Hey Dentally Team,I have encountered a possible bug during my workflow. Patient has booked in online for a recall, paid a deposit. However, when I charged the patient for the account we were unable to do electronic HICAPS claim. I have checked the date of charge and it is correct. There is no bug for the deposit as it is unallocated and it did jump into the invoice.Or if I did something wrong please let me know. Joe
Hi @Saymon @Molly H @Simon Guiver Is there a way within Dentally/Portal that we can send people a password reset link. A few pts have said they cannot get onto the portal because the 2FA codes that come through dont come straight away and also if they are on a mobile they have to leave thta screen to get the code. Unfortunatley not everyone is tech savvy so I feel there needs to be an easier way for them to logon and/or reset their passwords and I think more people would use it then. Does anyone else have problems with people using (or refusing to use) the portal
Hello. As the years are going by, the list of paid invoices on patients notes is getting longer and longer, meaning the location of the “Take Payment” button is moving further and further down the page.My suggestion would be to move it to the top, near/next to the “New Invoice/Statement of Account/Bad Debtor” area.I have mentioned this to my superiors in the past who have told me they have submitted it to Dentally but no changes as yet.
Hello, I have just been in a meeting regarding FTA Fees and deposits. We are in 2 minds what to do….Charge a deposit to pts who pay for treatment - the only downside to this, if the pt has an outstaanding amount from a previous course of treatment, Dentally automatically allocates the payment to that treatment, which will cause problems further down the line. Start taking a charge for missed appointments through charitng a “Missed Appt Fee” which will show on pt notes. The only slight drawback to that is that if a pt doesnt ever come back we wont get the money. Is there a way to automatically take a payment through something like GoCardless. Obvisouly none of the above can be used on Denplan Care pts as they pay monthly but for Essentials pt and PFPI then it will work. I just wondered what other practices do to reduce FTA’s Tom
Is there any way to add a digital signature to a letter composed for a patient?
Hi all,I wondered what everyone's process for recording Lab Work is and if anyone has a good way of using the new Lab Work Log. I don’t see it being very helpful with just the “Sent, Received, Overdue” feature as it doesn’t give any details.Ideally we would have things like which Lab was used, date due back and description of the lab work. We currently use a custom waiting list for this but want it all in one place.Any suggestions from users or updates from Dentally regarding improvements on this feature would be great.Thanks!
I'd like to provide feedback on your DIrect Messages feature. The windows to see the list of contacts is too small, and there is no appropriate signs as to which conversation has been read or not. Perhaps this features requires some reworking, as it is specially frustrating on large practices with dozens of staff texting. In fact, you cannot even read their full names if too long. Please fix this as this is a huge quality of lifeimprovement for a very good platform.
Good morning All 🌞I would like to know how practices keep track of referrals especially urgent referrals within Dentally. We currently use a custom Wait List but it is a workaround and not efficient. We would also like to use automated SMS to contact patients 2 or 4 weeks after the referral to confirm that they have been contacted by the specialist.
A feature to incorporate would be to be able to send a patient a link to fill out their personal details and information prior to the appt. At the moment they can only fill out medical history, but I think it would be very efficient for workflow if reception when booking an appointment gather the name and phone number to sms or email a link for patients to fill out the remainder of their information. Which can then be reviewed by staff and confirmed
