Multi-Code Tip of the Month

One of the most significant benefits to utilizing Dentrix Enterprise in our FQHC’s is how easily the system allows our users to consolidate the number of <Clicks> it takes to perform point of care documentation. Allowing the users to select the treatment to post with the 24 procedure buttons will save time, reduce the number of clicks, and help with standardization. These procedure buttons collectively represent the most common procedures performed in the operatory or clinic.

Tip of the Month
Utilize the Procedure Code Buttons by incorporating "Multi-Codes"

To use your top 24 Procedure Code Buttons or "Hot Keys" as I refer to them, follow the below simple steps:
Setup

Create and decide which multi-codes will be used in the procedure code button.

    1. Starting from the Office Manager


    2. <Click> Maintenance | Practice Setup | Multi-Code Setup





















































Using the Procedure Code Buttons in Dentrix Enterprise
Link the Multi-Codes to the Procedure Code buttons

    1. Starting from the tooth chart

    2. <Click> File | Setup Procedure Code Buttons



















*** Keep in mind when setting up these procedure code buttons, the user-definable buttons can represent a single procedure code, dental diagnostic code, condition, or "Multi-code" ***
