Create New Express Booking (Normal/Private/IOD/Insurance)
- To make a new express booking on the diary for a new patient, double click on the time slot or click on the New Booking button in the top right corner of the screen below the Logout button. Make sure that you are working on the correct diary.
- The Booking details screen will open.
- Choose the Booking Type and make sure that all information in the Booking Details panel is correct. If the information is not correct, you need to choose the correct information. You can configure the Type, Status, Location, Treating Doctor and Service Centre in your Diary Settings so that it automatically defaults when you create a new express booking.
- Capture the reason for the appointment.
- Before you capture a new Patient, search for the Patient in the Debtor/Patient search bar to make sure that the patient does not exist on the system. This will ensure that you don't make duplicate entries. IF you do enter the patient details and they are already on the system, a pop up will appear, warning you that there is already a debtor file with the same details. You can then select to either keep the information as it is and save the booking or select the existing Debtor.
- Capture the New Patient's Information.
- It is important that you capture all the patient's details (Full names and surname, date of birth, ID/Passport, Medical Aid and contact number.)
-
Click on SAVE to capture the express booking.
TAKE NOTE: The express booking Add/Edit Booking screen will only display and require the Patient Details.
- The detail of the booking will reflect in the selected time slot.
- The file will also be opened on the system with all the details that you captured on the booking screen.
- When clicking on the booking that you have just made, you will notice that a side panel will appear on the right side of the screen. The Debtor Number, Name, Surname and Outstanding amounts will reflect as this patient is an existing patient on the system now.
