Heartland Dental Launches Conuity Care Coordination Platform

---

Enhanced care coordination platform and services strengthen connectivity between general dentists and specialty providers while improving visibility, communication and continuity of care.

Heartland Dental recently announced Conuity Care Coordination, an enhanced platform and suite of services designed to better connect general dentists, specialty providers and patients throughout the specialty dental care journey.

Today, only 15% to 30% of patients advised to seek follow-up specialty dental treatment adhere to that recommendation. This breakdown in the patient journey can impact patients’ overall oral health, oftentimes leading to more complex, invasive, painful, or expensive care later. Conuity Care Coordination™ combines technology and care coordination services to help manage specialty dental care from referral, scheduling, treatment and follow-up, strengthening collaboration between providers and helping patients stay connected to the treatment they need.

“At Heartland Dental, we are committed to investing in tools and capabilities that help supported doctors deliver an exceptional patient experience,” said Rick Workman, DMD, Founder and Executive Chairman of Heartland Dental. “Conuity Care Coordination™ reflects that commitment by helping connect providers, simplify collaboration and support more seamless care journeys for patients. It is another example of how we continue to evolve our doctor-led culture and support model to better serve supported doctors and the communities they care for.”

Conuity Care Coordination connects every step of the patient’s specialty dental care journey from the initial general dentistry visit to the specialty care treatment that follows. Through the platform and supporting services, care teams can more easily identify specialty care options, track patient progress, communicate across providers and support patients as they move through their treatment journey.

“Conuity Care Coordination represents an important step forward in connecting doctors across the patient’s comprehensive care journey,” said Timothy J. Quirt, DDS, MBA, Senior Vice President of Clinical Operations at Heartland Dental. “By combining enhanced technology with care coordination services, Conuity Care Coordination™ helps strengthen communication between general dentists and specialists, provides greater visibility throughout treatment and helps patients stay connected to the care they need.”

Conuity Care Coordination reflects Heartland Dental’s continued investment in a doctor-led culture and support model, enabled by technology and services that strengthen collaboration, streamline processes and help supported doctors focus on delivering exceptional patient care.

Heartland Dental is the nation’s largest dental support organization, providing non-clinical administrative support services. What started from the entrepreneurial spirit of Rick Workman, DMD, with his single dental practice, has evolved into affiliating with over 3,000 doctors in over 1,900 locations across 38 states and the District of Columbia. The company is majority owned by KKR, a leading global investment firm. For additional information, please visit heartland.com .
