Clinical Updates - 6 October 2025
by Trenna Reeve 05 Oct '25

05 Oct '25

Dental Hygiene and Dental Students, Updates as follows: 1. For insurance pre-authorizations (CDCP, Blue Cross, NIHB etc.) you must indicate if a planned crown/denture is "Initial Placement". If not the initial placement, the PCCs need to know approximately when the initial was placed in order to submit the pre-authorization. If this detail is not included in the pre-authorization request it will be denied and returned requesting this information. Add these details to EHR notes when treatment planning is most helpful. You can also include the details in your email request for pre-authorization submission. 2. HC FUND Form * If you want to request the Exam and X-rays to be covered, you must include their codes and fees in the HC Form. * You must list all treatment codes, sites and associated cost in the HC Form. It is most helpful to list as follows: * 23 33111 one canal root canal $xxx.xx * 23 27201 ACC crown $xxx.xx * When calculating the Total Cost requested for the HCFUND, include all costs for the listed treatment. If the patient has CDCP coverage, calculate the co-pay amount. * Only treatment included under the CDCP Fee Guide that meets CDCP eligibility criteria and frequency limits is considered. 3. There is a new Screening Template Note to be used in axiUm going forward. Located under D3X5 (3rd year) and D4X5 (4th year). 4. Radiology Request Form - you must close the requisition for radiographs REQ ---> FIN (page 71-73 in axiUm orientation manual) 5. Ensure you are checking in and checking out your patients when seated and dismissed- it is students responsibility to do so as they are in constant communication with their patient, as well as for safety reasons (mentioned in Patient Management Orientation). Part time instructors have mentioned this helps them monitor which students to check in with first. And this is mandatory in case of a fire drill all people must be accounted for and we use axium to track this. 6. Students are not allowed to delete treatment that is put in EHR. A patient's chart is a legal documentation - correct process is to submit correction card for it. (page 74 in axiUm orientation manual and page 36 in Patient Management Orientation) 7. Students are coming into PCCs windows with their masks under their chin. They touch their masks many times when by the window. Masks should be removed before exiting the unit followed by hand sanitizing. PCCs will be noting when students come to the front desk with masks on and breaches will be followed up. 8. Students must check SAP coverage for their patient prior to booking their patient's appointment. Have a great week ahead. Dr. Reeve Trenna M.

Weekly Clinical Update 21 Sep 2025
by Trenna Reeve 21 Sep '25

21 Sep '25

To all dental and dental hygiene students: Updates for clinical activities: 1. Infection prevention and control guidelines are not suggestions, they are mandatory. I have indicated to all clinical staff to write IPAC breaches and submit them to me for review. If at any point, a student has a major breach or repeated minor breaches there is the potential for clinical activities to be limited for that student while IPAC remediation occurs. * the college follows the Manitoba Dental Association IPAC mandated policies and protocols. Accepting these guidelines and incorporating them into your workflow will be essential for your entire career * Wash your hands 2. Government of Canada Fund Request * Check your axium fund request forms. If the form has not yet been approved, you will need to review & update as the form has been modified and requires more detailed information * We added clarity to the questions that need to be answered/confirmed by the patient * The form has been divided so that both DH & Dental Students can add/update their own treatment plans/procedure codes and amounts for the same patient. Any changes, additions, modifications can be done but then you must resubmit the form to Associate Dean for review * Anytime they update a tx plan or amount, you need to resubmit the form to the Associate Dean indicating there has been a change and get it approved * Include all treatment costs - do not forget to add in xrays & exams on the fund request * Notify your PCC when treatment is completed so that the funding can be applied * Students all have access to view all of the tabs so you can verify the status of your requests Have a great week. * Trenna M.
