This bug happens consistently for me as well...Have been seeing this for a very long time..It is probably in the last stable version as well...

Pruce Dental

Not sure if this is on the bug list now or not but wondering why it has not been fixed for some time now... Using the beta (and I think this goes back some time before the beta)...When you click on an insurance claim to post a payment and after you click "by procedure" the "Totals" columns on the bo...

Pruce Dental

I see it already done in 17.3.35 ready to be released soon..You guys are the best!

My staff are celebrating now that there is a (hopefully)easy fix for this so they can stop writing down the BP's on scraps of paper that get lost....

Pruce Dental

Any thoughts?

Pruce Dental

I asked this questions some time before and want to bring it up again and direct it to the OD staff I know it is a part of the EHR stuff but why if you enter a blood pressure reading and leave the height and weight blank does it have to fill in the height and weight as zero when saved? I record BP a...

Jason...

Are there any future plans to use all that extra real estate on the right side of the screen for something useful? Is there a reason is it not being utilized?

Pruce Dental

I too called in to support reporting the Direct X problem. My charts are either blank or almost a quadrant or two of teeth are all grayed out. It also throws an exception error and crashes OD.

Pruce Dental

Still confused how your applying the discount plan... "Perhaps there's a misunderstanding, but the Discount Plans are for people who do not have any regular insurance plans...." Are we talking about an in-house plan where somebody signs up for a year for $XXX dollars and gets 2 free cleanings and 10...

Pruce Dental

I know you can change the fee schedule etc ...But why have a discount if nobody sees it or knows they got it? Dentistry is expensive..if I charge $1000 for a service and then knock off $100 well $900 in the patient's eyes is still expensive.If they can't see the discount on their statement and know ...

Pruce Dental

Reason I asked who was because I placed several hundred dollars and all 100 of my votes on feature request #622 several years ago for discount plans hoping that someday I would not have to manually go into every patient account and calculate the 10% senior discount and then add the adjustment and th...

Pruce Dental

"It has been requested..."

Exactly who requested this way?

You could do it the way I suggested and then on the individual procedure code level or insurance plan level add an option to not discount the individual code or insurance plan?

Pruce Dental

Think your making it way more complex than necessary. OD needs to check if there is a discount plan before doing an insurance calculation. If so, it takes the new discount fee number and then follows all calculations the way it currently does. Discount fees should always be taken off first so you ar...

Pruce Dental

Why can you not have a discount plan and insurance plan on the same patient? I have several patients that have both. If their employer offered insurance plan is weak they have purchased a discount dental plan too for the non-covered services etc. For the services covered by insurance I would like OD...

Pruce Dental

Any updates on the status????

Pruce Dental

When you go into the "edit appointment" screen on a patient with a treatment plan the priorities/procedures are no longer in order and you have to hunt for the next appointment procedures. Is this a bug, expected new behavior or a setting needs changed somewhere I am missing?

I must be missing something here... I did what you said in the definitions but can only change the text color and not the background color like all the other procedure notes now can display. In 15.4 I have it set so the background color is my assigned provider color for all procedure notes (except g...

Pruce Dental

Let me start by saying I like version 15.4....

Is there a reason though that the group notes got ignored? When you set up a provider color in the progress notes they only show as white. Also if you set your view to show signed procedure notes in the account module the group notes show as not signed.

Pruce Dental

Any updates on this? Seems to not be included in version 15.4 right?

Pruce Dental

Thanks Nathan!!!

Pruce Dental

I agree and want to not have the summary of care emails that I don't want sent showing. I just referred a patient to an oral surgeon for 26 extractions, 4 quadrants of alveoplasty and 3 tori removals so now I got 33 of these emails cluttering up my chart.

So after I get an EOB sent from Dentalexchange into OD (see above post), can I save a copy of it attached to the claim without printing it and scanning it back into OD?

Pruce Dental

Spoke with Dentalexchange...I will fill out the paperwork to receive 835's through their website. They said they currently cannot send 835's back to OD however because OD doesn't have the ability yet. Sounds like OD needs to contact DentalExchange?

Pruce Dental

The Version 13.3 page says that the version was for initial steps towards 2014 certification. Was this test for the complete 2014 certification or is there still more work to do as far as EHR goes?

When you get a credit card voucher from an insurance company have your staff call the insurance and ask them to reissue a check...you do realize when you run it through your credit card processer your are paying a credit card processing fee and percent of the already low insurance payment right?

Jordan does the description on the request need changed or updated to reflect the new government standards? Will you be able to use any email client like Thunderbird with the new regulations? any...

Will all users get the encrypted email when you add it or will only the people paying extra for the EHR monthly service get it?

Ask Patterson for their price for the Scan-X without the Patterson imaging. If they say it is the same price tell them fine and you will place your order after checking with Schein and Benco for their pricing...the software is always sold separately and I don't believe Patterson gives anything away ...

I am using Apteryx with the Optime phosphorus plate system and got a OP-30 panorex...originally I was using the Kodak Imaging software...hated it..couldn't send my propriety images to any specialist without receiving a phone call from them saying they could not view my images then having to return t...

far from a joke..there are plenty of offices that are not taking full advantage of PMS software...I couldn't be paperless with my old software too.. I would learn first how to build sheets..not sure if the trial lets you export sheets or if that is in a later version...if not in the trial ask if you...

Pruce Dental

yeah..i am totally paperless... I have all my medical histories, registration forms etc captured on a med history sheet at a kiosk...all my radiographs are digital.. you might get more answers and better help if you tell us how far along you are going paperless..ie do you do ANY charting in OD yet?....

Jordan...I like the idea of the swipe readers for logging on and off..every store and restaurant uses them instead of fiddling around and wasting time...what type of hardware and costs are associated with the readers..they are not the same readers for doing credit cards right?

Pruce Dental

opps..somehow I missed your response to this thread till today... :oops: each of my claims when scanned appear on the screen undersized and not fit to the screen (only when scannig EOB's and not when scanning thru the image module)...they take up less than one-fourth of the screen..when I hit the zo...

Why when I scan an EOB (using the new feature in version 12.0 and up) does my image appear so small on the screen as compared to the size of scans in the image module? If I try to zoom in enought to make it readable then the whole EOB does not fit on the screen. I use NEA and need to use their scree...

I am looking at the Epson Workforce s50 scanner and have a few questions. I like it because of both the PDF and Twain divers versus the Fujitsu ScanSnap. (1) Does it work with windows 7 64 bit computers? (2) Does it remove blank pages when scanning both sides? I saw that the Fujitsu ScanSnap adverti...

Pruce Dental

yeah..it just looks silly looking at the bottom of their statement with the date and time for a "Pro Poe Flo Pan BWX "..is there a way to turn off the description of the procedures if too hard to pull the descriptions onto the statement?

Pruce Dental

Jordan...

On printed statements on the bottom when it prints out the patient's future appointments...Why does it use the abbreviation codes instead of the actual procedure code and full description. The abbreviations make no sense to patients.

Pruce Dental

could the OP just delete the one deposit in question then remove the one item that doesn't belong and then remake the deposit with the old date?

I remember seeing a different video from several years ago with Howard talking about the same subject. It might have been one of his free online practice management videos on DT? But anyways he talked about knowing the true cost of each procedure down to every material used in an average procedure.....

Another vote for nope on emailing lab slips...why would the lab want to have to match slips to cases and we would still need something in the box for them to identify the case...maybe it can be hidden and placed in the setup options for the few that want it? I don't have a default lab email setup......

Which Robert are you asking?..lol If me..I am on version 12.0.8.0..but I have noticed the behavior for months and wondered why nobody else had commented on it...I have patients with a treatment plan for one tooth and 4 teeth have charted conditons showing on the graphical treatment plan but when you...

Is there going to be a way to scan zero payment claims anytime soon then? I have plenty of patient's with dual insurance coverage with the primary not covering any prostho, single crowns, etc. and need to scan the EOB's for NEA attachments for the secondary insurance. Seems silly to have most of the...

Pruce Dental

Jordan... I started scanning EOB's into version 12.0.... To view an EOB afterwards you have to go to the claim screen and double click on the insurance checks section to view the EOB or is there another way to see them also? Reason I am asking is because I want to be able to see scanned EOB's that h...

Pruce Dental

YES!!!!

Just in time for Christmas!!!...some new toys!!!!

Pruce Dental

so when we move to version 12.0 can we neatly move EOB's previously stored in the images folder of particular patients and attach them to previous claims or should we temporarly stop storing them in the images folder and just scan them into the correct place after version 12 comes out?

I don't do payment plans but can tell you how I do my CHIP children. I set the child as the subscriber with the insurance plan and keep the parents on the same family account but set one of the parents as the guarantor. The guarantor parent can still even be set as a non-patient. The bill will be se...

I know that you can copy forms like medical histories with the "copy" button instead of completely filling them out each time you want to update. Is it possible to copy exam sheets? I do not see a copy selection anywhere. Reason I ask is that sometimes a patient will have some benign lesion that the...

Can someone give me the dummies guide to HIPAA 5010? I use dentalexchange with opendental.

Do I need to do anything on my end to be ready or is it totally the clearinghouses problem?

That's the way I envisioned it too...

It's a feature request that I want to see happen too...my medical and dental history took 3 sheets to make and therefore we have to ask the patient to sign 3 separate sheets in addition to the registration form and the HIPAA form..for a total of 5 signatures for a new patient... pleae vote on this f...

Just trying the new 11.1.3.... Thanks for adding the tab order...

Jordan... If you chart a treatment plan item with both the 'F" and "V" surfaces OD doesn't recognize that they are the same surface and gives a warning asking if you want to use a two surface restoration instead. In the grand scheme of things it barely registers on my radar as an annoyance since the...

Jordan... As far as finalizing all the finances...I think OD should run a realtime insurance estimate and patient co-pay amount right on the scheduler or even better out of view on the edit appointment screen. The only way currently that I see for giving a patient an estimate of their co-pay is to s...
