The Multi-Code List is a list of the multi-codes that exist in your Dentrix Enterprise database and their corresponding details.
|
Why: |
To ensure that treatment-planning services that require multiple steps/appointments (for example, dentures) have multi-codes that have been set up properly, to ensure that each multi-code consists of the correct procedure codes, and to ensure that each multi-code reserves the correct length of time in the Appointment Book |
When: |
After Dentrix Enterprise setup, and as needed |
