Healthcare providers have always struggled to find an efficient, effective patient intake and registration process. Many medical practices still rely on traditional methods like printed forms on clipboards and in-office kiosk systems.
In an increasingly digital world, patients demand a more streamlined, self-service system—and providers are realizing the benefits more than ever before.
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted a number of existing issues with traditional waiting rooms. By waiting until patients arrive at their provider’s office to complete their intake and registration forms, they risk potentially delaying their appointment time—the cumulative effect of which is all too familiar for office staff who need to field increasingly frustrated patients throughout the day. More importantly, the exchange of physical paper patient forms—ID and insurance cards, credit cards, etc.—increases the risk of exposure between patients and administrators.
By implementing a fully integrated mobile patient intake and registration system, medical facilities are able to keep patients safe, waiting rooms clear, and EMR systems up to date in real time.
Virtual waiting room solutions like Yosi Health allow healthcare providers to streamline the check-in process, minimize in-person contact, and give patients the freedom to complete their paperwork before they arrive at their facility.
