III. Patient Appointments and Physicians

The program is able to schedule appointments for every doctor at the different medical departments, with the capacity of booking emergency appointments on the appointment screen. This contributes to facilitating and expediting receptionist duties by sending an instant message to the relevant doctor, informing him/her not only of the new scheduled appointment; but of the subsequent one as well, in addition to the service required by the patient.

For the purpose of assisting reception personnel perform their designated duties with ease and efficiency, UniSoft has consolidated all required data in a single screen, which includes data related to patient records, patient visits, samples withdrawn and patient insurance details; in addition to the capability of accessing appointment screens.

The system features a simple, easy to use and flexible search facility to simplify and hasten appointment slating, while resolving any possible time-consuming problems. Searches may be conducted by patient name, file number, cell phone number, civil ID number or address, etc.

The solution also features a highly adaptable, scalable and effective appointment screen, capable of postponing existing entries and scheduling new ones at any given time. Users are also able to cancel appointments and process the necessary procedures with the respective physicians. The screen has been developed to accommodate reservations spanning several years as well as retrieving data from previous cancelled/postponed appointments, while identifying employees authorized to confirm and cancel appointments as appropriate.

IV. Physicians

Separate screens are assigned to each physician for entering patient diagnosis while displaying medical history and whether the patient has been referred by another clinic. Physician screens can also refer patients to a specific clinic, laboratory or physician where needed.

The physician enters the procedures pertaining to each case and follows them up, assisted in so doing by the screen’s automatic retrieval of the patient in question. The doctor then enters any necessary procedures required in operation theaters, medical investigations, or medication to be prescribed; communicating the latter to the in-house pharmacy online.
