What is CDAnet™ and What is ITRANS™

• Yesterday dental offices sent dental claims (CDAnet formatted messages) on behalf of patients to insurance carriers using a phone line and dial up modem.
• Today the ITRANS Claim Service takes the same dental claims and sends them to insurance carriers using your Internet connection.

The ITRANS Claim Service Secure, fast and easy!

• The manner in which you input claims into your system will not change. Other than the initial setup there is no learning curve, a great plus for the front line staff.
• By using the Internet, for the transmission of CDAnet dental claims, dental offices are now able to transmit a claim from more than one computer at the same time.
• Using the Internet avoids interfering with fax and payment terminals.
• With privacy and security being top of mind in today’s health care system it’s good to know that ITRANS restricts access to only those with a valid ITRANS Digital Certificate, and assists you in being compliant with PIPEDA and other privacy legislation.
• By using the ITRANS Claim Service, your dental office has access to the ITRANS Portal, an ITRANS website that lists claims that have left your office over the last 90 days: when the claim was sent; the type of transaction; which carrier it went to; who the patient was; error codes; and, whether it was adjudicated. This can also assist your staff in answering questions about claims without having to call the carrier and should they still need to call, they will now have more information at their disposal to expedite their work.
• Exchanging clinical documents amongst providers is included with the ITRANS Claim Service. It gives you the ability to send patient data from one dentist to another in a manner that provides security and respects privacy legislation (PHIPA, PIPEDA). Today you can send digital images, X-Rays and clinical documents (letters, referrals, …) securely, authenticated and encrypted, to other providers on ITRANS over the Internet thereby ensuring your patients are protected.

• Once insurance carrier systems are capable of receiving digital clinical information you will be able to send to them as well.
• ITRANS makes this all available to your front line staff today!
