SAY HELLO TO ABBY
ABB Analyze, is a customized practice dashboard that not only efficiently and accurately tracks performance but also benchmarks against regional and national peers. The collection of data is seamless and pain-free. As a result the practice can remain patient centric and focus on executing toward goals while ABB Analyze concentrates on centralizing and organizing practice data into usable, key metrics.
ABB Verify, is a centralized source for gathering eligibility and connecting with your patients to help them maximize benefits. The On-Demand functionality gives your team real-time access to in-network vision and medical payers. The Verify platform then target markets, via email and text, to patients who have remaining exam and material benefits that might otherwise go unused. Due to those proactive reminders, more patients are driven back into the practice for additional purchases - helping the average practice increase profitability.
Build a Confident Pricing Strategy with updated, actionable data. For years, thousands of ECPs have used our retail price monitor to effectively determine a competitive pricing strategy. Now, we are proud to introduce the next evolution - the Digital Price Monitor. This web-accessible dashboard is updated weekly to help ABB Contact Lens customers manage their contact lens pricing so they can effectively compete.
