  • Patent number: 7885833
    Abstract: An interactive system and a method for diagnosing, evaluating and treating the condition of Temporomandibular Disorder, where through a series of steps, consultations, procedures and protocols associated with individual appointments, information is gathered and entered into a database by a user through a personal computing device, which is added to or updated as treatment progresses in future appointments. The information gained during the appointments is used to generate printed or electronic reports, letters and insurance claim forms supporting the services rendered, reduce the errors involved in manual insurance claim form coding, supply consistent and proven successful treatment codes to insure payment, and which seek reimbursement from medical insurance coverage by the dentist as opposed to dental insurance coverage in order to maximize the benefits received and allow the patient to avail themselves of the generally higher coverage limits and lower deductibles associated with medical insurance.
