Course Schedule

10:00 AM

This module is where you would create preference cards that are used within a facility to help streamline the data entry process through the different modules; from scheduling to clinical documentation management to billing. Preference cards can also help with projected case costing, scheduling conflicts related to equipment and supplies, and are designed to print as an accurate pick list for the clinical staff.

Preference cards not only help the scheduling team schedule more accurate procedures and resources, but they help the clinical staff prepare rooms for a procedure and help ensure that the environment is one that the surgeon requires for the procedure(s). They make the overall process more economical and efficient for the surgeon and facility.

During this class we will cover:

• Home Page/Print Selected Card
• Creating Cards: Auto vs User Select
• Creating Cards: Surgeon vs. Specialty
• Editing and Deleting Cards
• Preference Card Tools
• Surgeon Preferences
