**The problem:** Eligibility gets checked by phone one patient at a time, recalls go out as generic blasts, claims come back denied on avoidable coding and attachment errors, and diagnosed treatment sits unscheduled. Every leak is administrative, and every off-the-shelf tool solves only one slice.

## What we build

- Insurance verification & prior-auth, eligibility, benefits, and coverage checked and documented before the patient is seated
- Interval-based recall & reactivation, perio and prophy patients on their real clinical schedules, not a generic monthly blast
- End-of-day claim scrubbing, coding, attachments, and eligibility checked against payer rules before submission
- Unscheduled-treatment follow-up, diagnosed but unbooked treatment surfaced and chased until it's on the calendar
- AR & insurance-aging chase, aging claims and patient balances worked systematically instead of when someone finds time
- Missed-call & after-hours front-desk automation, every inbound captured, triaged, and routed so no new patient goes to voicemail

## What these systems are built to do

- Verified before seated, Eligibility checked and documented ahead of the visit
- Intervals, not blasts, Recall driven by perio vs prophy schedules
- Scrubbed before submission, Catch coding and attachment errors before denial

## FAQ

### Does this read x-rays or make any clinical decisions?

No, and that's a hard line. Everything we build is front-office, insurance, scheduling, and revenue-cycle work. The system never interprets images, diagnoses, or makes any clinical call. Your dentists and hygienists own everything clinical; we take the administrative load off the front desk.

### Will it work with our practice management system?

Yes. We build on top of the PMS you already run (Dentrix, Open Dental, Eaglesoft-style systems), so verifications, recall status, and claim data land in the record your team already works in, not another disconnected tool.

### Is this just generic recall reminders and a chatbot?

No. Recall is driven by real clinical intervals (a perio maintenance patient is on a different schedule than a prophy patient), and the insurance and claim work is rule-based automation on your PMS and payer portals. It's practice-management plumbing, not a widget.
