Throughout October, a range of improvements have been made to EXACT. From updates to scanning functionality, enhanced login security and patient communication tools, these improvements are aimed at making practice management faster and more efficient.
The upgraded scanning feature includes popular requested changes, such as lower-quality scans, ideal for scanning documents and an updated user interface to simplify workflows. Meanwhile, login improvements fix previous issues with email verification, helping ensure a smooth login experience for all users.
In patient communication, new SMS and email templates make it easier to welcome new patients to your practice. Additional refinements, including changes to the EXACT Hub, receipt printing, and claims reporting , provide more control and flexibility.
