Gary, what has happened since you switched off your fax machine?
Hi Oliver,
I have sort of documented the why on the Ausmedicalsoftware site
http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/AusMedicalSoftware/message/2821
We are much happier now.
Patients have to come back or at least pay for scripts and referrals.
No more Divisional or Pharmaceutical company advertising
All those patient requests "Can you please fax this, it's urgent" can be
answered with a polite "No, we don't have a functioning fax machine at
the moment."
I don't really think there has been a significant downside.
Are other parties now emailing their clinical information to you? Are
you using Argus or some other messaging system and asking the other
parties to use it to get their info into your clinical system?
We are slowly getting more information electronically. We have a
gastroenterologist, an Orthopaedic Surgeon and an ENT surgeon sending
electronically. All radiology, pathology and most cardiology
investigations are coming that way.
Baby steps.
Gary
