In short

How can I automatically track oral surgery referrals from dentists?

WebRun opens DSN Software every Monday, reviews all open referrals from dentist partners, updates the referral status tracker in Google Sheets with current appointment and procedure status, and posts a pipeline summary to Slack. Stale referrals open more than 14 days are flagged for coordinator follow-up, keeping every referring partner informed.

  • Every open dentist referral has a current status every Monday morning
  • Stale referrals older than 14 days flagged before referring dentists notice silence
  • Referral pipeline visible in a single Google Sheet by referring partner

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send referral status updates to the referring dentist automatically?

No. WebRun updates the internal tracker and alerts your referral coordinator in Slack. Any communication sent to referring dentists is prepared by staff, ensuring clinical accuracy before outreach.

How does it know which referrals are stale?

It flags any open referral that has not progressed to a scheduled appointment within 14 days, surfacing them in the Slack summary so the coordinator can follow up before the referring dentist loses confidence.

Can it track referrals from multiple dental practices at once?

Yes. WebRun pulls all open referrals from DSN Software regardless of the referring practice, grouping them by referring dentist in the Google Sheet so the coordinator can see the pipeline by partner.
