The Patient Referral Taskforce (Shawn Curtner, Cathy Beatty, and Ashley Hill) has finalized the new process of electronically tracking the status of all incoming patient referrals. Jason Sentivany has programed customized fields and queries within Compulink to help facilitate this goal. The new process was presented at the last clinic staff meeting on January 28. The taskforce is now in the process of testing the new system prior to launching it. The launch date will be announced via email once testing has been completed.
In the meantime, please familiarize yourselves with the new process prior to the launch. A new patient referral tracking job aid has been posted in the clinic resources folder on clinic desktops. As we begin this new process, please reach out to one of the taskforce members if you notice any issues, glitches, or complications. With all new processes there are growing pains, needs for improvement, and changes to work out the kinks. We look forward to the implementation of this new process that will help streamline and make our processes more efficient for all staff involved in this process.
