Boosting Practice Efficiency
Moving with the trends
Online fillable forms are a great way to show patients that you’re up the trends and care about the environment by reducing waste. Patients spend so much time filling out forms in the waiting room. Not to mention all the materials that go into the supply of having printed fillable forms. Restocking ink cartridges and having to manage all the paper forms is wasted cost and time. Staff also has to spend much wasted time verifying and checking information before a patient is seen, which leads them to spend more time in waiting rooms. Paper forms lead to a lot of error that also leads to staff checking and verifying all while the patient waits to be seen by their doctor. By having them fill out forms ahead of time, you or a colleague can go over the information ahead of time and contact the patient if errors occur. By using online forms, patients are also able to upload a copy of their insurance plan verifying their insurance.
Online fillable forms help to save a lot of time spent filling out countless information in the waiting room if your patient has already set an appointment with your clinic then why not have them fill out the much-needed forms on their own time at their own convenience before the scheduled date. Over 87% of patients can fill out forms online, regardless of age or computer background. Online fillable forms can be updated and modified at any time. This saves time while keeping your information accurate and up-to-date
