Overview
Waiting Room and Pending View
What needs to be done for pending and waiting patients and what can you prioritise?
DCP is here to help.
This DCP function provides an overview of pending appointments on the day OR waiting patients.
These are shown as DCP Panels, and can give you a way to plan and improve your workload.
Delegate tasks, eg enroling nurses to bring patients up to date for measurements and begin paperwork, to improve patient care and lighten your load.
Rather than just have a list of patients that are overdue a billing item, DCP can
- Show the billing items overdue for each patient.
- Show overdue preventive care items for each patient.
- Lead in to completing the overdue items and creation of paperwork for CDM items.
