Referral Automation
The Challenge
The referral process can take around 2 weeks to a few months to complete depending on the size of the referral queue at both the referring physician and Specialist office. Once the patient is scheduled, it is up to the specialist and their staff to complete the process– documenting the visit and following up with the referring physician.
The traditional referral process has significant room for error
- Errors in documentation
- Missed phone calls by the patient
- Overlooked or accidentally deleted/shredded faxes
- Time delays that cause the patient to abandon treatment or seek treatment directly through an out-of-network specialist
The Solution
Automate the referral intake process includes ingestion of faxes, a tracking system for referral completion, correspondence, and scheduling automation.
Benefits
- Prevent referral leakage and care abandonment
- Eliminate the need for faxes and multiple time consuming phone calls
- Integrates within your current systems and workflows (including processing faxes)
- Create awesome first impression with new patients and grow annual revenue
