Hi Brian, Currently we have the integration for the swiped transactions at the front desk to post directly into OpenDental but do not yet have that level of automation for the online patient payments. It's something we have discussed and may offer at some point in the future. All patient payments wo...

If you use eStatements from DentalXChange and our PayConnect merchant services, we can securely deliver the statement to your patients and they can choose to pay the statement online. Patients are able to store and choose from multiple payment sources (similar to PayPal) in their secure PatientConne...

Sorry for the delayed response, but I wanted to double check and make sure I was providing correct information. In a stored card transaction, we don't have complete control of the rate charged by a particular card issuer. The key is to provide as much information as possible in order to get the best...

i just switched from xcharge to pay connect...THE AUTO CARD DEBITING(reoccurring charges) and the saved credit card info DOES NOT WORK with payconnect. the eligibility works really well with some insurances and others completely useless. You will still have to verify some info with all of them. wha...

If the claim confusion was for a claim submitted electronically via ClaimConnect, please contact our customer support line (800) 576-6412 Ext. 452 with the specific details of the claim and the insurance company involved. The numeric codes represent the HIPAA required values but we are able to work ...

We are working with OpenDental programmers to complete the integration. Stay tuned and thanks for your interest.

For what it's worth, DentalXChange replaces (but stores) the claim ID received on the claim with a unique claim ID since very few PMS programs supply unique numbers. You are able to search claims by either ID in ClaimConnect so that you will have the unique claim ID availabe if checking on a claim w...

DentalXChange has the ability to receive the 835 files and post them to your ClaimConnect account for download. Once you've downloaded them, Open Dental could be programmed to read in and post the data. (or maybe already can?)

Hope this helps,

Scott

If you use DentalXChange electronic statements, we can set your office profile to only print the credit card logos you accept on the patient statements. You can get more information by calling 800-576-6412, Ext. 455.

I hope this helps,

Scott

Jordan,

Please let us know if we can assist in any way.

Hello, There is no official place for the school name in the electronic format, but we have come up with a "work around" for Delta CA that might work for other Payers as well. In the claim notes, enter "COL school name " without the quotes or other punctionation. OpenDental should output this in an ...

It is also fully integrated with the NEA F...

You can use ClaimConnect with OpenDental from any PC you wish. No softare to install and keep updated, one button sends the file.

ClaimConnect can handle much longer notes/comments. I believe we just need multiple NTE segments, each of which may have an 80 character limit. We would be happy to confirm and test this with you Jordan. Let me know.

Hope this helps.

In ClaimConnect you can set up a Default Billing Provider which would be your clinic name, TIN, NPI, etc. Generally we just recommend using the license number for one of your practicing dentists. The only payer that tends to care about the license number is Delta CA. If a provider practices in more ...

Great news Jordan. Let us know if you need any assistance.

A number of Medicaid plans have had significant processing difficulties since the NPI mandate went into effect in May. We have worked through the issues for most state Medicaid programs and would be happy to see if we can assist your office. Please let us know which Medicaid plan you are having diff...

They are a medical clearinghouse with no direct connections to dental payers as of yet. They have just completed testing with us so all of their dental claims will be coming via ClaimConnect or dropped to paper. Not sure how they plan to offer free claims. I suspect a loss leader to get you in. Like...

Since ClaimConnect hosts all of your claim management tools and real-time statuses online, there is never an issue with submitting claims or managing the results from multiple computers.

Opensource, Online eigibility and benefits services are a work in progress. The technology is definitely there, but we're rather at the mercy of what content the insurance companies chose to make available. HIPAA mandates only that they supply a "yes-no" eligibility response. Some payers have recogn...

ClaimConnect is prepared to handle the new DentiCal CDT-4 codes. Other than submitting with the new codes rather than the local codes, no other changes will be required.

Good article on this topic in the September 4, 2007 issue of PC Magazine. There are several vendors offering "plug and play" options that would allow an average dental office to be up and running very quickly with more features than they are likely to use. We switched to Fonality PBXtra call center ...

If using ClaimConnect, the NEA rules and image number management are completely integrated. Simply upload your claims, the system will determine if the claim needs an attachment (based on rules provided by each insurance company), and pass the specific claim info to the NEA system. All you need to d...
