Developed in partnership with Emdeon, a leading healthcare payment and logistics provider, Patterson Dental Supply’s Eaglesoft Clinician is a fully certified Electronic Health Record (EHR) designed to help dental offices qualify for federal incentives.

Billed as an essential tool in navigating federal payment programs, Eaglesoft Clinician holds the federal government’s ‘meaningful use’ designation, which officially deems the software capable of allowing practitioners to access funds under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.  In addition, the software is 2011/2012 compliant with criteria set by the Secretary of Health and Human Services.  Therefore, just by utilizing Eaglesoft Clinician and its network of certified vendors, dental practitioners may themselves earn ‘meaningful use’ status and the federal stimulus money that follows.  The federal government’s emphasis towards dental offices obtaining ‘meaningful use’ status is part of an effort to improve healthcare through the adoption of useful technologies.

In addition to the features already found in Eaglesoft 16, the practice management software through which Clinician operates, the new system allows dentists to electronically submit prescriptions.  Upon the release of Eaglesoft 17 in the near future, Patterson will seamlessly transition Eaglesoft Clinician users to the fully integrated version of the software.

Described as a value-added distributor of dental products and services, Patterson Dental Supply is a leading provider of workflow and practice management solutions to dental practitioners and laboratories throughout the United States and Canada.  To learn more about Eaglesoft Clinician, call 1 (800) 294-8504 or visit www.eaglesoft.net.
