What is patient intake?

Patient intake is the process practices use to collect new and returning patients’ information, including social and clinical data, demographics, insurance, consent forms, and payments. Traditionally, this process has been manual, involving clipboards full of forms for patients and lots of data entry for practice staff. This isn’t very efficient and also creates unnecessary exposure between patients and staff through close contact, an important infection control concern.

Why is patient intake important?

The patient intake process is often the first impression a new patient will get from a practice. Additionally, completing this process thoroughly and accurately is integral to a practice having the appropriate information to care for a patient, as well as bill and be reimbursed for the services it provides. Honestly, this task is far too important to remain a manual process that is hastily completed when the patient arrives for their appointment. To provide the highest level of service to your patients, each and every aspect of the patient intake process should be automated.
