Pre-treatment estimates at Connect Dental Specialists

Much of what Connect Dental Specialists faxes is a treatment plan paired with a pre-treatment estimate, so the patient and the payer both know the scope before care starts. A full-size, legible radiograph — not a cropped page — is what lets the plan's consultant read the film. Ask the payer which radiographs or notes it needs so the estimate is not held up.

Routing a case to the right specialist at Connect Dental Specialists

When a patient needs surgery, gum care, and restorative work, Connect Dental Specialists coordinates the sequence across its providers. The imaging and the reason for referral let the receiving specialist plan before the visit. Confirm which Connect Dental Specialists specialist should receive the case and that provider's current fax.

The HIPAA side of faxing Connect Dental Specialists

Because these documents contain PHI, the channel you send them over matters as much as the number itself. Under HIPAA, the transport for protected health information should be secure, not a public or ad-supported one. Send FAX Mail's flat monthly plans start at $12.99/month with no per-page fees and a 7-day free trial, and each page to Connect Dental Specialists travels over an encrypted connection.

Faxing to Connect Dental Specialists — FAQ

Fax still works for many documents at Connect Dental Specialists, but not for every one. Many claims and pre-authorizations now move through a clearinghouse such as DentalXChange rather than fax. Match the document to the channel Connect Dental Specialists actually wants, and it lands right the first time. Confirming the channel first is the honest shortcut with Connect Dental Specialists.

Get it from Connect Dental Specialists directly rather than an old online listing, since office numbers change. Call Connect Dental Specialists and ask the treatment coordinator or records desk for the current office fax. A quick check beats faxing a chart to a number that has moved. Note the number the first time so a later fax to Connect Dental Specialists is quicker.

A records release, a set of X-rays, and a pre-authorization request are the documents sent most. A dental plan may request X-rays and a narrative to support a pre-authorization or a claim. Name the provider it is for so the front office routes it correctly. Most of these are a few pages, so they fax quickly once you have the line.

Every page should carry the patient's name and date of birth. Direct the cover sheet to the front office and include a number staff can call. A delivery confirmation then tells you the fax reached Connect Dental Specialists. Check the details once before you send so nothing has to be resent.

Because Connect Dental Specialists houses several specialties, the referral goes to the specific in-house provider — the oral surgeon, periodontist, or orthodontist — who will see the case. Ask Connect Dental Specialists which specialist should hold the case and that provider's line. Send the referral and imaging together so the specialist can triage it. Name the document and the provider on the cover sheet so it is not misrouted. It is a small step that spares you a follow-up call.
