This article can guide practices in the configuration of providers within their electronic health records to ensure reporting requirements for MAT services are captured and reported accurately.

However, because this is the only dental measure, practices should work to ensure that their data is accurate and take steps to improve the process. Because Electronic Dental Record (EDR) is separate from Electronic Health Record (EHR), and there is often a separation between management and oversight between dental and medical, this article can guide practices in optimizing the dental sealant measure.
