Are you a physician or involved in the running of a healthcare practice? If so, it may be helpful to read the following article.What makes physician transparency so important?
Want to understand why physician transparency is so important for any healthcare practice?
Imagine you’ve just moved to a brand new town. You don’t know anyone yet, but you have to find a healthcare practice immediately. Before showing up and blindly trusting the physician in front of you, wouldn’t you like to know a bit about them? This is why it’s important that every physician takes the right steps to having an online presence. Before a patient sits down in front of you, it makes the patient-physician relationship that much stronger, because a patient will already have developed trust. Luckily there are many tactics you can employ when it comes to developing a credible online presence.
How physician surveys can improve online reputation
One of the best ways to demonstrate and enhance the online reputation of any physician is through the application of physician surveys.
Physician Surveys
By taking a multitude of these types of surveys and publishing them on your profile, you can clearly demonstrate to your community of patients that you’re actively involved in your chosen area of the healthcare profession.
A more modern and efficient patient sign-in process
One of the most ineffective and inefficient features in any traditional healthcare practice is the patient sign-in. Luckily, new technologies have been implemented to make this process a lot easier and seamless for patients.
When patients check in to a traditional clinic, they usually have to wait for a long period in a line. This is the last thing they need if they are feeling particularly sick or tired. During peak periods, the receptionist may get overly busy and overwhelmed, requiring the help of further employees.
A modern sign-in system can help with these problems. They typically work as follows:
  • A patient calls to make an appointment, or makes an appointment online.
  • The appointment date, time, and any further details get recorded by the online system, or entered manually by the person taking the call if the patient is using the phone.
