Describe how a practice management system would assist with reminders for patients


Periodic checkups and teeth cleanings are important for dental health. Dentists recognize that it is their professional responsibility to encourage patients to have this routine care and send reminders when it is time to be seen again. It is also important to the financial viability of the dental practice to see patients regularly. Practice management software should be able to identify patients who should receive a recall no-tice and patients who failed to respond to a previous recall notice. The software should be able to print envelopes and perform a mail merge to personalize the recall notices the patients receive. The system should keep track of when patient recalls are due and when they are sent. Some software programs can send recall notices as an e-mail message.?
