EPIC follow up functionality

Transcript

• 00:00Hello, this is going to be a short video
• 00:03just to show about the follow up section
• 00:07and some recommendations for Epic.
• 00:10You know, as we've gotten on Tele
• 00:13Health, I think a lot of people are
• 00:15using the follow-up
• 00:16functions more extensively.
• 00:17But also, we really want to encourage
• 00:19people during clinic to be doing this.
• 00:21So if you could have come to the
• 00:23wrap up section under follow up,
• 00:25you'll have the different
• 00:27time frames for follow up.
• 00:28You can certainly change those speed
• 00:30buttons if you simply click on the wrench.
• 00:32You can type in if there are different time
• 00:36frames that you prefer for your patient.
• 00:39There's also these text follow-ups that
• 00:41you can wrench in whatever you'd like.
• 00:45For example, I think it's really
• 00:47helpful if you can put a face to face
• 00:49follow-up versus a Tele health follow up.
• 00:51It helps get the appropriate patients
• 00:53to the right kind of visits,
• 00:55and lets the desk the front desk know
• 00:57what it is that you're hoping for,
• 00:59and if there are other things
• 01:01that you use regularly,
• 01:02you can put these in.
• 01:03So there are simple click boxes to add.
• 01:06With that said,
• 01:07I wanted to point out what I found
• 01:09now to be probably the most helpful
• 01:11is the checkout Note section.
• 01:12You can see here.
• 01:14This is just a free text way.
• 01:16To give the recommendations to the front
• 01:18desk of what you'd like to see set up,
• 01:21I like to put my notes there.
• 01:23Helps give kind of clarity of
• 01:24what it is a patient comes to the
• 01:26front desk either virtually or in
• 01:28clinic of what you're looking for.
• 01:30I often relax, take, you know,
• 01:32set up things,
• 01:33might say kind of a time frame or
• 01:35or what it is we're looking for.
• 01:37I'll explain what I want for the
• 01:39follow up and it really can be
• 01:41a direct communication so that
• 01:43somebody looking at the front
• 01:45desk can kind of know exactly what
• 01:47it is you're thinking about.
• 01:48So just some suggestions on ways to
• 01:51really make use of the functionality.
• 01:54To me this check out note is
• 01:57become very helpful in the process.
