Running the RiskCalculator™ in
Training/Demonstration Mode

You may run the application in Training/Demonstration mode at any time, either for evaluation of the RiskCalculator™ or for training purposes. This provides you with the environment to explore the functionality of the application, although you cannot produce new Treatment Option Plans for actual patients. In other words, you may enter data as if you were creating a Risk Assessment, but the report you produce will be pre-formed and fictitious. However, there is no charge to download or use the application in Demo mode.

The output is fictitious in terms of the report contents, and runs separately from your normal, fully-functional mode of the RiskCalculator™, so you won’t actually save, delete, or have to worry about “breaking” anything in your patients' real medical records.

If you wish to do “real” risk assessments on real patients, you need to contact PreViser for a Username and Password. You will receive one month’s free usage, and then you will be billed $6.00 for unlimited risk assessments for a single patient over a 12-month period. This will be billed monthly to your office and may be paid by phone or mail.

The demo mode includes a set of eight pre-compiled Treatment Option Plans, with one specific to each of the possible algorithms or variations of Risk Assessments (seven for Caries one one for Perio).

When you click Finish at the end of a Risk Assessment wizard while you are in Demo mode, you will see a message notifying you that the report you are about to generate is for demonstration purposes only and contains fictitious data (note that no fees are charged while running in this mode).

Risk Assessments you perform in Demo mode are not counted in the running summary "Total # of Risk Assessments" which displays on the Home page.

To select or deselect the Training/Demonstration mode:

1. To activate Demo mode, click the Options button (at the top of each screen) to display your Options page.

2. In the bottom left hand corner of the screen, click the box marked "Training/Demonstration Mode" so it is selected (checked). Click the Save button.

3. The application is now running in Demo mode. It will remain in Demo mode (even if you close and re-open the application) until you change that setting.

4. To change the application and deactivate Demo mode, open the Options page and uncheck the Training/Demo mode box. Click the Save button. The application is now in normal, fully functioning mode.

A note on Demo_Joe:

The application also comes with established records for a patient named "Demo_Joe Demo_Thompson." In his Risk Assessment history summary list, you can see all eight possible age-relevant reports (7 variations for Caries and one for Perio).

Demo_Joe is set up in the application like a regular patient, and his record appears whether or not you are running in Demo mode.

Risk Assessments you perform on DemoJoe when you are not using the application in Demo mode do appear in his Risk Assessment summary list on his Patient Details page, and are counted in the total # of Risk Assessments which display on the Home page. You can do as many risk assessments on Demo_Joe as you like, but unless you are using the software in "Demo Mode," you will still incur the $6 fee per 12 months of risk assessments for Demo_Joe.

If you are only using this in Demonstration mode and would like to have access to the fully functional version of the software and services, you will need a User name and Password.
