United Kingdom-based vTail, a healthcare communications platform connecting healthcare professionals directly to medical product companies, is expanding into U.S. dentistry, according to a Nov. 15 news release.
"Dentistry needs support- and time-saving efficiencies, which the vTail app can easily provide," said Michael McCarthy, chief marketing officer for vTail. "On any given day, a dental office can house upwards of 10,000 individual branded products from hundreds of different manufacturers. We want dental professionals to have an easy, intuitive way to get what they need from manufacturers on a timely basis, without searching for representatives' business cards."
VTail is free for all providers. The HIPAA-enabled app allows dentists to communicate with companies without sharing personal phone numbers or receiving unwanted inbound calls or emails. The platform also includes a searchable product database and a newsfeed providing relevant information for dentists, dental specialists, dental hygienists and office managers.
