CHATTANOOGA, Tenn., March 27, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rhinogram, a leader in cloud-based, HIPAA-compliant, telehealth solutions, today announced the seamless integration of their telehealth solution with SelectBraces, the online platform which helps prospective patients research, compare and connect with orthodontic specialists in their local community. Through the collaboration with Rhinogram, SelectBraces now offers consumers the opportunity to request virtual orthodontic consultations directly from orthodontist profiles on SelectBraces.com. This innovative approach to patient communication also allows practices to compete with other online based treatment providers in the oral care industry.
"This partnership with Rhinogram exemplifies our mutual commitment to the preservation of the orthodontic specialty along with our commitment to improving consumer convenience while maintaining the integrity of care,” said Emily Beglin, DDS, founder of SelectBraces. “We are honored to be working alongside such a skilled and professional organization to move virtual orthodontic consultations into the mainstream of care."
Powered by Rhinogram’s HIPAA-compliant, telehealth platform, SelectBraces allows prospective patients and orthodontic practices to securely communicate via two-way texting including the exchange of documents and multimedia communication. The complete history of SMS messages, which cannot be edited, are archived in the patient’s communication record within Rhinogram, allowing practitioners to quickly and conveniently reference past communication with their patients.
“Patients want to know they can conveniently and easily access their healthcare providers, especially when it comes to communication – this includes researching and choosing a provider. With Rhinogram, patients can text their providers and vice versa, so practices can engage with patients wherever they may be located,” said Kathy Ford, president and chief product officer of Rhinogram. “At Rhinogram, we’re continually looking for ways our platform can remove the barriers between practices and their patients. This integration with SelectBraces is doing just that by helping orthodontists connect with consumers so they can focus on delivering the quality care patients deserve.”
