How to upload Statements and Treatment plans from your PMS.

The PbN Printer can seamlessly upload patient statements and treatment plans from your practice management system. A PDF version of the patient's Statement or treatment plan can then be emailed or texted to the patient.

To get started, you can email support@practicenumbers.com to enable the PbN printer for your Practice. Once the PbN printer is enabled, you will navigate to Forms > PbN Printer.

Once here, you will select Download Setup File. Once the file has been downloaded, you will enter the PBN printer UID (see the image below). The same UID can be used across multiple computers. The PBN printer will then be connected and ready for use.

Under the PBN Printer List, you can view or download the PDFs sent to patients using the printer.

Here is what Dentrix offices will see when connecting the PBN Printer. For Dentrix offices, using the PBN Printer for Treatment plans will allow the insurance portion and fees to be pulled into the treatment plan.

Treatment Plans

To upload a Treatment Plan, you will go to the patient's overview and select Send Form from the treatment plan or Send Treatment Plan from the Comm Center.

Once pulled up, you will select the treatment plan from the drop-down menu under PBN Printer Attachment. You can save this treatment plan to your PBN Printer list or select "Delete after invitation sent" if you do not wish to save it to PBN. Once the patient has signed the treatment plan a copy will be saved to the Doc Center.
