Do
you how much time and effort it takes to fill up the registration form in
hospitals and healthcare centers? After that someone in the admin department
will have to manually transfer all the data onto the HCO’s computer system.
During this data transfer process, some information may be misinterpreted,
typed in wrongly or in the wrong column. Even if it is a small mistake, it can
have huge consequences on the treatment process. Also, the other problem is the
use of valuable man hours for data transfer. So, how can you save time and
reduce the percentage of such errors? Digital
form software offers the right solution to your problem.
These
digital forms are a boon to the healthcare industry and go a long way in
digitizing and streamlining the entire process. The digital forms software is tablet or computer based, which
allows healthcare organizations to use different devices according to their
convenience. The payer can be asked to directly fill in all their details on to
the form. As the payers are uploading information directly, you don’t have to
worry about bad handwriting or errors during data transfer. Here, the software
can be programmed to directly collect data from the payer’s personal
identification card. So, the patient has to just swipe the card or enter the
number, and the software will automatically fill in the relevant details in the
personal column. The other details can be easily filled in by the patient.
After the payer has entered the information, he or she can validate all the
details with an electronic signature. If the device has a touch screen, the
payer can directly sign using their fingertips. So, this electronic form saves
time and effort for both sides.
Finally,
another advantage of using digital form
software is that it can be customized according to your requirements.
Plus, you can easily transfer this completed form to the relevant departments
depending on the type of treatment the patient is undergoing. Doctors,
pharmacists, people at the lab, everyone can directly update the information on
the form. The electronic forms can also be programmed to insert scan copies, x
rays or any other document for reference.
Digital forms software
not only enhances efficiency, but also does away with a lot of paperwork. It is
also eco-friendly, and will save thousands of sheets of paper and ultimately
trees, from which the paper is manufactured.
