Dental-specific charting, perio, and treatment-plan actions, built on the healthclaw foundation.

What ERPClaw does for dental practices

Dental patient records, tooth charting, periodontal exams, CDT-coded procedures, treatment plans, insurance claim tracking, recall scheduling, and HIPAA-aligned audit trail. Built on the healthclaw foundation with dental-specific extensions.

Capabilities

Patient records + treatment plans

Dental-specific patient records with medical history, allergies, current medications, and treatment plans. Multi-provider scheduling for dentists, hygienists, and assistants on shared calendars.

Insurance claims + eligibility records

Good faith estimates, claims built line by line with scrubbing checks, eligibility checks you record, remittance posting matched to claims, patient statements, and denial and appeal tracking. ERPClaw tracks each claim's status; transmission to the payer runs through your clearinghouse.

Recall + appointment reminders

Recurring appointments for 6-month recalls, a waitlist, and reminder records scheduled per appointment. Sending those reminders by SMS or email is not built in.

Production reporting + payroll

Per-provider production reports (encounters, patients per day, charges) for dentists and hygienists alike, with staff pay handled in the foundation payroll module.

HIPAA-aligned audit trail

Immutable, chain-hashed GL, an audit trail on record changes, and a PHI access log of who viewed which record, when, and why. Self-hosted deployment keeps PHI on your hardware (the AI model you connect sees only the requests and results it works with), simplifying HIPAA compliance perimeter.

Frequently asked questions

Is ERPClaw HIPAA-compliant for dental practices?

ERPClaw provides the technical controls HIPAA requires (immutable audit trail, encrypted credentials, role-based access, self-hosted data residency). HIPAA compliance is ultimately a function of your business associate agreement, training, and policies; the software meets the technical requirements. Self-hosting on your hardware simplifies the compliance perimeter compared to cloud SaaS.

How does ERPClaw compare to Dentrix or Eaglesoft?

Dentrix and Eaglesoft are mature practice-management systems with deeper dental-specific workflows (perio charting UI, X-ray imaging integration). ERPClaw covers patient records, scheduling, insurance claims, production reporting, and the full back-office ERP (accounting, HR, payroll). For practices that want one system end-to-end with AI-native architecture and $0 forever cost, ERPClaw is the AI-native option. For deep imaging-integrated workflows, Dentrix still leads on the operatory side.

What about insurance integration with major carriers?

ERPClaw does not generate 837 files or connect to carriers today. It tracks claims, the eligibility checks you record, and the remittances you import, while your clearinghouse handles transmission. Talk to us if you need a specific carrier or clearinghouse prioritized.

Is the dental module free too?

Yes. healthclaw-dental is part of ERPClaw's open-source build. Every module including the dental-specific actions is Free & Open Source and $0 forever. Self-hosted on your hardware.
