Discus Dental Software, Inc., announced today the launch of its state-of-the-art practice management software, OMSVision. OMSVision, created in partnership with the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons (AAOMS), is a cutting edge, comprehensive application designed to enhance operating efficiencies while reducing costs and maximizing revenue flow for the specialty practice. Virtual Scan Forms highlight the many innovations OMSVision brings to the oral and maxillofacial surgery practice. “Scanner technology may have simplified patient processing years ago, but it left users with cumbersome equipment, additional paperwork and increased supply costs. OMSVision’s Virtual Scan Form technology streamlines patient processing while eliminating scanners, bubble sheets or paper scan forms--all in a real-time, wireless environment,” commented Brad Schraut, Director of Discus Dental Software’s Oral Surgery Division.
Virtual Scanning provides users with secure, one-screen access to a patient’s entire visit, making it quick and easy to input procedures, prescriptions and diagnosis codes. With OMSVision, patient management begins in the operatory, reducing paper handling and posting errors as treatment takes place. For even greater efficiency, the front office team can view the patient’s processing information instantly, enabling them to check out patients more quickly and post insurance billings almost immediately.
AAOMS and Discus Dental worked together very closely on this new software application throughout the course of its development. According to AAOMS President Larry W. Nissen, DDS, “Our strong partnership is working well and I believe that Discus Dental built the finest software and customer service offering possible for the AAOMS community.”
Bruce Lieberthal, DDS, General Manager and lead architect of Discus Dental Software, also commented on the dynamic partnership between Discus and the AAOMS. “It was teamwork that made this revolutionary application come to life. I would like to thank the doctors and team members of the AAOMS Task Force, Brad Schraut, our product expert here at Discus Dental, and the Discus Dental Software management team for all they have done to make this happen. I am confident that OMSVision will revolutionize the way that oral and maxillofacial surgeons manage their practices,” said Lieberthal.
Other key features of OMSVision include implant tracking, accurate accounts receivable and insurance management, electronic and paper-based insurance billing, appointment scheduling, real-time tracking and ranking of referrals, fast and flexible reporting and correspondence functions, and seamless connections to all major digital imaging and digital radiography products.
Donald P. Lewis, DDS, Chairman of the AAOMS Task Force on Software Development, commented, "We worked directly with Discus Dental Software throughout the development of OMSVision. I was impressed with their willingness to develop superior software that is specifically designed to perform in an oral and maxillofacial practice. I believe that the 'hands-on' approach to the development process, which included each beta site's entire office team, is reflected in the final product. "
OMSVision is a true 32-bit SQL client/server, Windows NT/2000/XP product. Scalable and robust, its architecture performs equally well for solo offices and multiple doctor, multiple location practices.
Discus Dental Software is currently scheduling in-office presentations of OMSVision for the oral and maxillofacial community. To arrange for a presentation, please contact them at 800-442-9448.
