After some chatter about Dentrix\\u2019s Business of Dentistry event, we get into why our health histories are really only surface level information. What if you were a bit more inquisitive in asking the \\u2018why\\u2019 of their health and medications?

Going paperless is unavoidable in today\\u2019s modern practice. Dayna walks us through expectations \\u2013 spoiler alert: there\\u2019s still some paper. Our patients expect us to be modernized and portals and forms are their first interaction with us. How is your office presenting itself?

Dayna then dives deep into health history forms and how we can sometimes screw it up. BUT she talks about how we can improve the process so that if your records are subpoenaed or reviewed you won\\u2019t feel like a bundle of nerves.

Towards the end we talk about intra-office communication and how that\\u2019s essential now. We\\u2019ve moved past Post-it notes!\\xa0\\xa0\\xa0
