Contact technical
support to activate the self check-in feature. Once activated, there are some
program setup options that are configurable to the clinic.
There are three
options for mode of self check-in:
- Remote
requires patients to use their own device.
- In-Clinic
requires the patient to use a tablet supplied by the clinic.
- Both
allow Remote and In-Clinic modes at the same time.
Select ‘in-clinic’
self check-in, if you want to have clinic owned tablets for the patient to use during
check-in. If you want the patient to be able to update the information, check
off the additional item, ‘Update patient information before check-in'. This
option will update the client card in Healthquest, if any changes were made by
the patient, with a note in the appointment detail notes window stating
demographics were updated. Click here to review the self check in process.
For the
remote option, or if ‘both’ is selected, there is a printable instruction sheet
with a QR code that can be posted on the clinic walls for patients to scan using
their own devices taking them to the check-in page.
For
patients to verify and update their demographics using a remote method, they
must have a patient portal account, and a program setup option checked off
under the patient portal settings. Program setup > HQO > patient portal
section > Check off “Allow patients to self check-in”.
To allow
patients to text to check-in, check off the option to self check-in by texting,
the printable instructions will have a phone number for patients to text ‘check
in’, in which they will receive a link taking them to the check in site.
Consider some other options to check off if appropriate, such as verifying, updating demographic information, and walk-in patients using self check-in.
*Note, this
is a clinic setting, not patient or provider specific.
