Creating Efficient Systems that Streamline Workflow with Referral & Discharge Management

For a home health and hospice agency, each area needs to operate from a system that is built on efficiency and maximizing productivity. There are so many vital components to running a successful home health agency, and it is important to continually evaluate each area to see if there are any improvements that can be made that will reduce costs, improve staff retention, or just develop a more streamlined workflow and improve the standard of care being provided. Referral and discharge management are one of the key areas to do an evaluation within your agency as they can often be overlooked.

Import with Accuracy and Speed via NDoc

Referrals are simple and easy to import with accuracy and speed through NDoc. You can create a carefully curated visit journey from start to finish that enables smooth and efficient referral and discharge in your agency. Once a referral arrives, you will have all the information that you need to begin developing care for the patient at your fingertips. Maintain meticulously accurate records with NDoc so that you can ensure that your agency is conducting appropriate assessments, interventions are executed properly and AIOs contain the necessary data and documentation after each visit.

Creating Comprehensive Care Plans for Patients after Referral through Discharge

You can import your in-bound referrals as well as your discharges with accuracy and speed directly into NDoc. This will help maintain the continuity of care that your agency needs to stand out among your competitors. The best performing agencies have this down to a science, and our NDoc software makes it simple to leverage advanced technology to create seamless, intuitive processes for your agency as well. Whether you prefer automated or manual capture of referrals and discharges (or a combination of both), NDoc is capable of ensuring that your agency manages the entire process smoothly.

Utilize Smart Technology to Manage All Aspects of Referral and Discharge

Smart technology can not only lead to more efficiency within the referral and discharge system. It can also encourage continuity of care and improve the financial performance of your agency. NDoc helps to maintain data integrity, reducing errors and mitigating the issue of having bad or incomplete data in the system. With this system, home health and hospice agencies can easily move into scheduling without any delay. It also helps to ensure timely billing and claims processes, as there is no delay in waiting for manual data entry.
