Dentists of Whittier is dedicated to providing the best dental care in Southern California. The more we know about your dental health history, the better we can help you. Save time by filling out your forms online, before coming to our dental office in Whittier.
Patient information is not only needed for basic administrative needs such as billing, but we also need your medical history in order to treat you or your child as safely as possible. For example, if your child has a history of allergic reactions to certain types of medications or substances, knowing this can help us make sure your child is not exposed to anything that could trigger a reaction.
As a medical office, we are required by federal law, specifically the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), to maintain strict privacy. You and your family’s personal health information will be kept private and secure.
You are certainly welcome to arrive early to your appointment and fill out patient forms in the office, but filling the forms out in advance has certain benefits.
For one thing, you can take your time. When at our office, you may feel rushed, and it’s easy to forget certain details when in a hurry. You will also have to spend less time in our public office space, so for people who are concerned about viral transmission, filling forms out in advance is the better choice.
The forms we provide online can be downloaded and printed, and you can mail them in advance or bring them with you. You can also fill them out electronically and fax or email them to us if you do not have a printer. (Note that email is not secure so it is not technically HIPAA compliant, see above.)
You’ll find the forms we need below. They include your medical history, dental history, financial/insurance information, and contact information. If you are having problems downloading them, give us a call at the office. We can also mail them to you upon request.
