FormFast Admissions Solutions

The turn-key Admissions Solution delivers the benefits of Forms Automation and Workflow Automation in one of the most key areas of your hospital. Most of the patient documentation required across your hospital can be completed with the click of a button at the time of admission. This is also achieved without changing the software interface that your admissions staff is currently using.

Automate the Printing of your Documents for Patient Admission

In the typical system, admission forms are printed at one site and distributed to many areas. FormFast eliminates the preprinted forms and embossed cards, saving significant dollars. Admission personnel enter patient information in the same manner as they currently do and print using same "print" prompt as they use in their current system. There will be no separate screens to access. At the click of a print command, Admission packets with patient data are automatically distributed to the admission laser printer, business office laser printer, medical record, and nursing station laser printers at the same time.

With FormFast's Admission Solution, Admission personnel will not need to find and load pre-printed paper forms, tear down a form and distribute copies, or manually emboss or label forms. The solution can also recognize certain triggers and, based on the data, select and print Consent forms, ABNs, Privacy forms, Medicare forms or alternate language forms. Wristbands and labels with patient ID and bar codes can be automatically generated as part of the admission packet by using a dedicated bin on the laser printer or a thermal printer. As part of the print job, completed forms can also be automatically faxed or e-mailed to the admitting physician. For Same-Day-Surgery, ER or Nursing Floors, all clinical chart forms can be generated from admissions and printed in the appropriate location.

By eliminating the need for embossers and impact printers and by simplifying training, bedside registration is enabled. The FormFast registration module is also a platform for collecting patient signatures electronically and for scanning insurance cards for central access.

Scanning of Insurance Cards and IDs
FormFast has a scanning interface to allow registration personnel to scan cards or forms at the point of admission. These images can be accessed and viewed by business office or registration personnel. It is very common to use the FormFast front end to collect these images and deliver them to your optical imaging EMR database.

Eliminate Duplicate Key Entry of Pre-Admission Data
With FormFast, prospective patients or physician assistants can fill out pre-registration forms on-line. Patients go to the hospital website to a pre-registration section and fill out a web-based registration form. Data is then automatically entered to the hospital ADT system with prompts for Preadmission personnel to verify and edit as necessary. Pre-registration is streamlined, time saved, errors reduced.
