New Patient Registration
"New Patient Registration is an on-line tool that lets
your patients enter their own histories prior to their office
appointments. It has been shown that they do a better job with
less errors -- and the best part is that they do it for free."
Faster, Smoother Flow for New Patient Check-in
Online new patient registration allows patients to provide their
full medical history, demographic, and insurance information at
all hours of the day – when it’s convenient for them. They
no longer come to the office early to fill out paperwork for
their first appointment. Instead, when they arrive, they sign a
form, sit down and are promptly shown to an examination room.
More accurate information
Online new patient registration gives your
staff more accurate, legible, printed patient demographic and
medical history as soon as patients are done online.
Information can be printed and placed in chart prior to patient
arrival.
Save your patients time
Patients no longer need to take extra time off to arrive at your
offices 15-20 minutes early, nor do they need to feel rushed in
the waiting room.
With this feature patients can fill out insurance information
and full medical history from your web site.
How does it work?
- Patient is told he/she can register online when they
call to make their first appointment.
- Patient fills out demographic and past medical history
information including history of present illness.
- Office staff input into system, print, and prepare with
chart for patient visit.
- Physician reviews medical history quickly and okays for
chart at end of patient visit.
OB/GYN
Along with general past medical history, family history, social
history, medications and allergies, all of a patient's Obstetric,
Gynecological, and Menstrual history is captured including child
births and sexual history. We
typically capture more information that the typical practice
does on paper forms.
Patients love the ability to avoid an extra 20 minutes in the
waiting area. Practices using Sage Portal usually get
a minimum of 30% patient
adoption within a few weeks of implementation.
“We can now
basically treat our new patients as existing patients when they
arrive. The flow is much more smooth and efficient. There is
nothing worse than having a new patient arrive for a 9am
appointment and then be roomed at 9:25am. I’m just starting out
my day and am already 25 minutes behind.”
- Sam Arnold, MD, OBGYN
Ophthalmology
Along with general past medical history, family history, social
history, medications and allergies, all of a patient's eye
related history is captured including eye problems, medications,
surgeries and injuries. We also collect a unique set of
data gauging patient optical needs and refractive interest which
equip your practice for advanced data mining and improved
strategic marketing.

performance (P4P).
