PurposePurpose

The EDI+paper system for Scottish NHS claims is being replaced with the eDental system-to-system capability. This is in place from April 2017, but roll out to practices is managed by the NHS.

The EDI transmission service becomes non-functional for payment claim submissions after 31 December 2017, so before this date your EXACT system needs to be updated and configured to enable the eDental capability, and your practitioners need to be fully appraised of the new workflows and procedures.

This eDental update is available from EXACT v12.9 onwards, but should only be commenced when your practice is selected by the NHS.

NHS Modernisation

A range of services have been deployed to extend the delivery of pharmacy based care in Scotland. The NHS has expedited roll out of these new services by introducing a centralised infrastructure that provides software applications to support each service.

...

The applications are collectively known as the ePractitioner Services (EPS) applications.

The EXACT eDental feature falls within these services, and is formally known as The electronic transmissions for NSS Practitioner Services eDental.

  • Increase the use of electronic communications

EXACT software has been updated in v12.9 to support this eDental initiative.

A continuation COT is where one Provider starts treatment and another Provider continues it. eDental software provides for notification on the NHS GP17 form that Treatment will be continued by another dentist on this same COT, then has the means for the continuing Provider to accept and continue the treatment.
