Patient details

You can quickly and simply search for the patient’s CHI number with simple visual indicators to identify the reference for your claim. The Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) is also incorporated into the patient record.

Relevant exemptions for example U18 claims are easily added and automatically applied and you can submit prior approvals and claims directly from the patient chart.

Prior approvals

At Dentally, our aim is for error-free prior approvals and claims submission, so you get paid faster. Dentally lets you create and submit a prior approval request to be validated and accepted by Practitioner Services. Prior approval limits and treatments are clearly flagged while processing. Dentally supports you through the complexities of the process, including requests for evidence which can be uploaded from the patient record.

Reporting for Scotland

Dentally reporting helps you take care of your patients’ oral health and ensures the work undertaken is paid by Practitioner Services. The Prior Approvals report allows practitioners to monitor the status of a prior approval submitted for a patient, so that appointments can be scheduled for treatments.

The Daybook calculates the income by the dental practitioner and provides a clear breakdown by payment plan and value, so you can monitor treatment type by dentist and work carried out on behalf of others.

The Treatment Plan report lists all treatment plans within a date range and using combinations of filters, so you can easily ascertain the status of all of your treatment plans, quickly identifying work that is ongoing and needs to be completed, patients whose plans need to be chased, work that can be closed and NHS work that needs to be claimed.
