e-MDsSchedule
Cost control measures, legal issues, stringent reporting requirements,
and increasing time pressures have made appointment books obsolete. Systems
that have tried to address all the demands of medical appointment scheduling
are often difficult to use or prohibitively expensive. The ideal scheduling
system must be fast and logical,
prompt users with useful information, and be customizable to an individual
practice's needs. It must be easily accessible and manage time effectively,
while still keeping patients and staff happy. topsSchedule meets all of
these requirements, yet is affordable and provides a significant return
on investment.
User
Customizable
topsSchedule meets your needs. Physicians can create their own schedule
time grids, and can have multiple grids for different days of the week,
as well as schedules for multiple facilities. You can even specify the
desired appointment type for a particular time of day. Equipment needs
are tracked, reflecting time for mandated
sterilization requirements and preventing double booking of resources.
Appointments are automatically loaded into each physician's personal schedule.
Modified
Wave Scheduling
The flexibility of topsSchedule extends to more advanced appointment-making
trends, such as modified wave scheduling. Multiple patients can be scheduled
into concurrent slots with different durations, or you can overbook a
single slot. Appointment density is color-coded, showing where the lighter
periods are, allowing refinement of the waves based upon workflow tracking,
and providing for more uniform scheduling where possible.
Easy
to Access
Schedules can be accessed via a network, dial up, or Internet connection.
This makes it easy to remotely control schedules, medical equipment, and
staff assignments for multiple locations. Our new, optional, secure Internet
interface allows physicians to access their schedule from anywhere at
any time. You can even allow physician-
approved patients to make appointment requests online.
Highly
Visual User Prompts
Simple color codes provide a visual cue of each doctor's schedule density,
alerting staff when providers are overbooked or are experiencing heavily
scheduled periods, or if a patient requires immediate attention. Our check-in
window is also color-coded,
identifying which patients are late, when the office is running behind,
and when things are going smoothly. A memo screen provides automated in-office
communication to notify staff of potential problems such as outstanding
balances, patient classification, clinical alerts, or insurance authorization
expiration.
Fast
and Logical
Our Windows interface, designed with constant guidance from working physicians
and office staff, uses standard commands and conventions. It is easy to
learn and displays all pertinent visit information on one screen.
Enhanced
Patient Satisfaction
Waiting room monitoring and visit time tracking allow analysis of how
well you are using your patients' time. Efficient patient flow translates
into improved patient satisfaction and retention and helps identify bottlenecks
in your workflow processes.
Tangible
Return on Investment
"No-show" tracking helps avoid scheduling of chronic "no-shows"
who take up time slots that could be generating income. Authorization
alerts prevent providers from seeing patients without payor authorization.
With the combination of internal workflow efficiencies and patient flow
management, topsSchedule makes the best use of your valuable time and
resources. Medical practices will see scheduling
enhancements improve their bottom line immediately.
