Anthem Releases Dental Patient Health History Tool for Dentists

Anthem Blue Cross has launched the Dental Patient Health History tool, offering dentists a comprehensive view of a person’s overall health. This solution helps dentists better identify new or existing health risks including oral cancer, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, or side effects from medications prescribed by other providers in an effort to mitigate complications and support patient health.

The tool provides oral health professionals access to diagnostic information, such as ICD-10 medical codes accompanied by simple explanations. It also gives dentists who are unfamiliar with ICD coding a better understanding of the information.

The Dental Patient Health History Tool is available to dentists in Anthem’s dental preferred provider organization network. For more information, visit: businesswire.com
