tab32 first to standardize EHR data

Dental cloud platform tab32 is the first in the dental industry to standardize electronic healthcare record (EHR) data by offering a cloud-based open data warehouse. tab32 is a cloud-based dental practice management software that is built on a machine-learning ready platform.

According to a press release from tab32, the open data warehouse allows for a standardized taxonomy for data collection, curation, and processing.

Data standardization impacts healthcare outcomes

Data standardization across the industry will inform business decisions and technological advances, the company said. “This has the potential to help evolve the dental industry to have stronger legislation created to support it, which will impact overall healthcare outcomes.”

tab32 is providing DSOs and practices the ability to make business decisions from a data-driven approach. Designed from the ground up, the software said to bring best-in-class cloud services to dental practices and DSOs.

According to tab32, the company’s platform turns the massive data if dental providers into self-organizing warehouses, with uniformly formatted and consistently categorized patient records and business data.

Data is both asset and obstacle

“Data is both a key asset and a large obstacle when it comes to the dental industry,” said Kiltesh Patel, CEO and co-founder of tab32.

“We are offering a modern solution that focuses on standardization, ensuring all data—from analytics to billing to clinical data and beyond—is easily accessible and interoperable. Standardizing these systems not only reduces time, making it easier for dental offices to respond to organizational crises and engage in same-day decision making, but it also allows for greater insight into the industry at a scale we have not yet seen before.”

AI helps unlock insights and efficiencies

Using standardized and synchronized data and technology, DSOs can now use Artificial Intelligence (AI) and business intelligence tools to surface new insights, unlock new efficiencies, and identify smarter and more effective ways to serve patients, the press release claimed.

Keep up and surpass medical data management

“The idea of standardization of data in dental is extremely powerful for the entire industry,” said Melissa LuVisi, CSO at tab32.

“This will allow us to leverage that information and take everyone to the next level in terms of patient care, coordination, delivery model, and more. Medical has already standardized its data; what we’ve done will allow dental to evolve past where medical is at, which will impact overall healthcare outcomes.

“This is extremely important because oral healthcare is vastly important when we’re looking at healthcare outcomes, yet it often gets looked over by regulators and care providers for a variety of reasons we’re looking to change.”

The dental practice management platform resides within the Google infrastructure and is monitored 24/7 by its own security team, utilizing HIPAA-compliant solutions for all data-associated efforts. Earlier this year, tab32 announced the launch of Image Cloud, a cloud-based image management platform accessible via desktop, smartphone, or tablet.
