Constant communication between dentists and the PCPs would only enhance patients’ care experience and improve their health outcomes.

In this episode, Claire Levesque, Chief Medical Officer for Commercial Products at Point32Health, talks about the ideal interoperability between dental and medical providers in terms of diagnostics and prevention for general health issues, as well as how insurance plays a crucial role in the execution of this integration from a business model standpoint with hosts Dr. Jonathan and Mariya. Going to the dentist is just as important as getting an annual physical test, and Claire discusses with Jonathan and Mariya how a systemic effort toward the integration of patient data across health practices and offices could benefit patients’ holistic care. They all bring to the table various examples of how dentists are in a privileged position for preventative diagnostics with issues like oral cancers or sleep apnea, having the potential to reduce further medical costs significantly. Claire explains the insurance perspective on the connection between dentistry and general health and how to navigate that field to make impactful changes.

Tune in and learn more about the game-changing effect the integration between dentistry and the rest of health practices could have on patients’ outcomes!
