Prior Authorization Submission for Dental Office Managers with Open Dental

Open Dental Dental Office Manager General Dentistry

The Problem

Prior auths for General Dentistry procedures sit in Dentrix queues for days — the patient reschedules, the surgeon's OR time goes unused, and the practice eats the margin.

What We Build in Open Dental

AI checks payer-specific PA requirements, pulls the chart from Dentrix, submits the PA with clinical justification, and tracks status — turnaround drops from 7 days to under 48 hours. Purpose-built for teams running Open Dental — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

Open Dental Integration Approach

1

Audit your Open Dental configuration

We map the specific Open Dental objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your general dentistry practice.

2

Build on the Open Dental API or agent

Integration happens inside Open Dental — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.

3

Human-in-the-loop handoff

Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Open Dental with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.
