This interview is part of our HIMSS18 coverage. We’ll be talking with thought leaders and vendors all week at the annual Health Information Management Society conference in Las Vegas.
On this episode we talk with Travis Moore, SVP of Market Solutions at Kyruus and Matt Gove, Chief Consumer Officer at Piedmont Healthcare, about provider data and patient access. We discuss how to address provider data inconsistencies across systems so that you can enable a better patient experience. Topics include:
- Self-scheduling and why your patients are ready for it
- Call-center scheduling
- Doctor-to-doctor referrals and in-office scheduling
- Why at Piedmont Quick Care Retail Clinics in Walgreens more than 50% of the volume is booked online.
The big take away for me is that patients are ready for online scheduling and they want to be seen on their own terms. This is evident in Piedmont’s high online booking rates, a preference to have a scheduled time even at walk-in retail clinics and in how millennials seem to be embracing asynchronous telemedicine options.
