October 16, 2024

The collaboration is expected to help dental schools and care providers deliver more efficient care while enhancing patient satisfaction, per the press release.

Henry Schein One has teamed up with Bridge to develop axiUm Engage, a new platform designed to simplify workflows and boost patient engagement for dental schools and care organizations. Set to launch in 2025, axiUm Engage will integrate patient intake, messaging, appointment scheduling, and online bill payment into the existing axiUm software, according to a press release from Henry Schein One.

Dental schools often struggle with balancing education and patient care, relying on manual processes that add to administrative tasks. The new platform aims to fix this by offering self-service tools for patients, such as online appointment booking, secure messaging, and access to dental records. Providers will benefit from reduced administrative work, allowing more focus on patient care, per the press release.

“We’re thrilled to partner with Bridge to bring axiUm Engage to the academic dental community,” Rick Gay, General Manager, Academic at Henry Schein One, said in the press release. “This upcoming solution will help dental schools and care organizations simplify their administrative processes, while enhancing the patient experience by offering the same level of convenience that patients have come to expect from private practices.”
