Patient experience is paramount in attracting and retaining patients for DSOs. But how do you make your patient feel special and cared for?
Today’s consumers expect personalized experiences from service providers, including their dentists. Instead of a one-size-fits-all experience, dental practices must focus on delivering individualized care through tailored treatment plans. Here’s what you need to know.
A personalized dental treatment plan helps deliver individualized care that addresses patients’ oral health needs, goals, preferences, and circumstances to achieve optimal dental health outcomes.
The personalized approach allows you to prioritize procedures based on urgency and interdependencies. You can plan the sequencing and timing of treatments to schedule each procedure appropriately.
Additionally, it helps deliver efficient and cost-effective treatments by optimizing resource utilization, reducing unnecessary procedures, and minimizing treatment delay, so both patient and dental practice can save time and money.
A tailored treatment plan improves patient engagement and satisfaction by addressing patients’ concerns and preferences. It makes them active participants in the decision-making process to help increase compliance. The holistic approach also addresses various aspects of the patient's journey to achieve optimal treatment outcomes.
A comprehensive dental treatment plan must cover all the bases. Here’s what you should include:
An effective tailored treatment plan must account for various factors to optimize treatment outcomes. These include existing dental conditions, medical history, lifestyle, and aesthetic preferences.
You need comprehensive patient data to create a holistic view of each patient to inform accurate decision-making. But where do you find it? You can tap into various databases and sources, including customer relationships management (CRM) software, electronic health records (EHRs), imaging systems, wearable devices, and more.
Additionally, you must have all of the information in one place. But manually transferring and collating the data is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and error-prone. How can you be sure you get the latest data if you rely on manual processes?
The good news is that you can automate the workflow with tab32’s API to automatically aggregate patient data from various sources to personalize comprehensive treatment plans cost-efficiently.
An API (application programming interface) allows systems and applications to interact and integrate with each other. Developers can access specific functionalities, data, or services from a dental platform to build custom applications or extensions. You can also connect various software to sync data and automate workflows.
Authorized applications can access and retrieve patient data from your dental platform or database via an API — including medical history, treatment records, demographics, or billing details. You can use the information to create individualized treatment plans based on each patient’s dental conditions, medical history, and preferences.
You can also integrate with dental imaging systems to easily access patient scans during diagnosis and treatment planning to improve efficiency and accuracy. Meanwhile, EHR integration helps synchronize data in real-time, streamline workflows, and eliminate human errors in manual data transfer.
tab32’s API supports seamless data transfer among systems to provide a holistic view of each patient’s condition. You can leverage the insights to devise an effective treatment plan, enhance patient satisfaction, strengthen patient-dentist relationships, and achieve optimal oral health outcomes.
