Treatment Plans and Predeterminations
Chart-It make available design of as many as nine separate treatment plans for each patient.
 
Codes and fee estimates can be established for stand-alone use, or can be easily copied and transmitted for incorporation in practice management software.
 
Types of Data Entry
Chart-It allows more options for data entry than any other single system on the market.  In addition to customary keyboard and mouse.  Useful options are ......
  • Vouce activation.  You say it, the computer records it.  This feature allows speedy, hands free data entry.
  • Electronic probe.  Chart-It allows you to use the industry's most popular Probe; Probe One.  Probe One allows you to probe a patient and the information feeds directly into the charting system and offers a real time audio feedback of the pocket depths.
  • Light Pen.  A suitable light pen is available from FTG Data Systems.
  • Touch Screen.  Many vendors offer touch screens, however, we have had very good success with ELO touch screens.
  • Drawing Tablet.  A suitable drawing tablet is available as a separate purchase.
 
Integration
  • Practice Management.  A practice management program feature provides communication with most major practice management systems.  Communications range from demographic information to complete and seamless code links between systems.  Consult your practice management vendor for implementation details.
  • Voice Activation.  Chart-It interfaces with Microsoft Speech Tools.  Computer voice activation provides full system functionality while freeing your hands for manual tasks.  Aside from the obvious convenience, hands-free operation provides an added measure of asepsis.
  • Probes.  Chart-It supports Abiodent's Perio-Tem and Probe One.  These probes give you a quick and efficient means of documenting the periodontal condition of your patients.
