Intake Staff Workflow
-
The intake staff, such as a nurse or technician, can use the Intake template to document patient encounter workflow. The intake staff opens the visit by checking the patient in, using the Intake template. The intake staff can review the patient's details documented in the previous encounters on the Home Page template.
- Histories Workflow
-
After documenting the details on the Intake template, the nurse can document the medical history of the patient on the Histories template.
- Provider Workflow
-
After the nurse documents the intake and medical details, the provider can document assessments and findings, and submit the codes for billing. The provider can review the patient's historical information documented in the previous encounters on the Home Page template or review the Intake Note document generated by the intake staff. The provider documents the patient examination findings on the SOAP template. The provider completes the visit and calculates the E&M (Evaluation and Management) code on the Finalize template.
- Checkout Staff Workflow
-
The front office staff completes the cardiology workflow by initiating the checkout process of the patient on the Checkout template.
