COMMUNICATION IS KEY
C

ommunication is a vital
part of any successful
practice.
That’s
no
different with the dental
sleep portion of a practice.
Descriptive,
yet
concise
correspondence is paramount
to keeping referral sources
and other healthcare providers
abreast of joint patients’ status.
Many physicians complain
that dentists don’t keep them
in the loop about how joint
patients are doing. Have they
been fitted for their device? Is
treatment successful? Is it time
for a titration study? You have
to keep them in the loop. DS3’s
Auto Letter Generator does just

that physicians prefer. DS3
automatically generates letters
to your patients’ healthcare
providers with just a couple
mouse clicks. The system
pulls relevant data from your
patient’s chart and drops it right
into one of dozens of template
letters that address the above

questions and many more. The
letters are concise, containing
just the salient details. Like

have the ability to easily create
your own custom letters.

efficiency and your referrals.

their preferred method of
communication. Well, guess

button and digitally fax letters.
It’s that simple. Alternatively, if
you’d prefer, you can also print
the letter on your letterhead
and send it via snail mail. DS3
is flexible.
These letters are an excellent
way to be an integral part of the
multi-disciplinary treatment
team. They let your medical
colleagues know that you’ll
keep them apprised of your
joint patients’ status AND that
