Easy is Good
EHR systems offer the potential to improve care quality and patient safety by enhancing both the quantity and quality of information available to providers for decision making. An EHR system's ability to capture detailed clinical information in a highly structured manner can enable analysis for quality assessment, identification of areas for improvement, and the design of decision support tools like allergy alerts, medication alerts, and other prompts. Prior to a patient visit, a dental practice's staff could use an EHR to manage scheduling of patients, staff, and resources. They could also perform practice management tasks such as patient registration and inquiring about insurance status. In addition, the EHR might be able to import and display relevant information obtained from another dentist, dental specialist, primary care physician or other health care provider, such as health history, health problems, and medication lists.

As a Certified Health IT product, AXEIUM EHR enables eligible dentists to qualify for incentive payments under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009. Acquiring certified software, and using it in a meaningful way, will allow some providers to receive incentive payments from the government over a number of years. Most general dental providers will likely not qualify for government incentives, as these incentives typically apply to medical providers. Dentists who see at least 30% Medicaid patients may qualify. See EHR Incentive Programs for more information on Meaningful Use and specific qualification criteria.
