About

Medical and dental systems were never built to talk to each other. Physicians can't send referrals to dentists electronically. Dentists can't return clearances through any standardized channel. Records don't follow patients between dental offices, let alone reach medical EHRs, payers, or consumer health apps. Everything runs on fax, phone, and X-rays burned to a CD. Conduit changes that. It connects the software each office already uses, medical EHRs, dental practice management systems, payers, patients, and AI platforms, through a single FHIR R4 integration. Each office keeps its system. Conduit moves the data between them. That includes resolving fragmented patient records across incompatible systems, so the right record follows the right patient across locations without loss or duplication. Four patterns. One platform: · Medical-to-dental coordination · Dental-to-dental referrals and record transfer · Prior authorization and claims routing · Patient access APIs aligned with CARIN Blue Button and TEFCA Founding member of the Oral Health Interoperability Alliance, active across all three implementation tracks. FHIR-based medical-dental referral workflows demonstrated at the CMS/HL7 FHIR Connectathon. Patent pending. Built for health systems, PMS vendors, DSOs, payers, and dental AI platforms. Conduit is a product of HeyDonto AI Technology. conduitdental.ai · heydonto.com
