Patient intake at dental practices involves collecting forms, verifying insurance, and entering data into the practice system, all done manually by receptionists. Manual processes create delays, incomplete submissions, and duplicate data entry that frustrate both staff and patients.
Automation sends intake forms immediately after booking, monitors completion, flags missing information, and syncs validated data directly into the practice system. Patients complete intake the same day, and receptionists spend minutes instead of hours on each new patient.
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
