In addition to delivering patient care, physicians spend an average of 8.7 hours each week on administrative activities, regardless of EHR status. Administrative responsibilities and personnel management are shown to decrease overall physician job satisfaction. Added to their continuing education requirements, Physicians read and work to stay current in their respective fields each week. The average physician’s day starts early and ends late.
To reduce administrative burdens on physicians and support staff, IT vendors designed solutions to reduce the time spent on administrative tasks ensuring focus stays on patients. Streamlining administrative activities benefits clinical teams and alleviates fatigue. Some examples of fatigue relieving options are:
- Template solutions to manage patient visits
- One-click access to vital information from anywhere in the patient chart
- Easy access to billing information that was missed or requires completion
eMedApps’ new Smart Visit solution reduces administrative time wasters and keeps the focus on delivering care.
Smart Visit scans your NextGen EHR, pulling together information on all patients for the day and collating it into one unified template to simplify and enhance physician pre-visit planning and prep time. From the dashboard, providers can review summary information about each patient, drill down into details, and go into a patient’s chart. In addition, the dashboard shows clinicians all their outstanding items across all of their patients, including open orders, PAQ items, tasks, and more. With one click, clinicians can navigate quickly anywhere in the patient chart and take whatever action is required.
