Foundations™ PatientFlow is the solution for ensuring that patient appointments are managed efficiently and accurately on the day of their visit.

How It Works
- Patient Arrives – With a click of a button, front desk staff confirms the arrival of a patient and directs them to the waiting area.
- Technician is Notified – Through an informative Foundations™’ dashboard, the tech monitors for the arrival of patients. They can review prior, current, and upcoming orders. An arrival on the dashboard cues the tech to retrieve the patient from the waiting area.
- Patient is Retrieved – The technician reviews order information and retrieves the patient from the waiting area. Using the order information, the technician identifies the patient and leads them to the exam room.
- Patient Details are Reconfirmed – Once in the exam room, the technician uses Foundations™ to reconfirm the patient’s identity and procedure details.
- Patient is Examined – The technician adds details into the order such as scan start time and when contrast was administered, performs the examination, and completes the order.
