Maximize your Productivity and Patient Flow for your Practice with Intra-office Communication

By August 21, 2018February 11th, 2021No Comments

WHERE IS EVERYBODY? HOW DO YOU MANAGE OFFICE WORK-FLOW ONCE YOUR DAY STARTS?

When it comes to having an efficient practice, staff communications are critical to maximizing your productivity. The ability to know what is going on throughout the office makes it easier for everyone on the staff to coordinate patient treatment and minimize interruptions. Discrete communications allow team members to get the doctors attention without knocking on a door, using an intercom, talking over them or worse, “Yelling Down the Hall.” Having effective communications can eliminate any potential interference with patient consultations.

Building and maintaining patient relationships is an important part of building a profitable practice. When you view your team’s communications from a holistic perspective rather than a series of individual pages or notifications your whole team will have a real-time snap-shot of what is happening throughout the office. Doctors will know how long hygiene has been waiting on a check, who was ready first and when their next patient has checked in and is waiting. Hygienists will know when the doctor can’t come for a check right away, so they can then give extra attention to the patient they are with.

Whether it’s getting a timely notification when patients are unable to keep an appointment or knowing that the doctor will be delayed in coming for an exam, knowing where everyone is, what stage of treatment they are at, and how long they have been waiting keeps your patient wait times at a minimum and reduces the daily stress of trying to keep up with a schedule that can change at any minute.

Comlite provides a light-signaling/paging and texting software that enables dentists to page assistants and staff to rooms, be notified when hygiene is ready for an exam, be notified of patient arrivals and know about schedule changes or cancellations as they occur. It is a non-intrusive visual interface that provides all this information at a glance on every computer desktop in the office.
