Patient record
Endoscopy and audiometry held as comparable records
ENT
ENT clinic software
ENT mixes clinic consultations, in-room procedures and day surgery, often for the same patient in the same month. The record has to hold all three without three systems.
Procedures happen in the clinic room
A lot of ENT work is done at the visit. It needs to be recorded, consumed from stock and billed as part of that visit rather than as a separate episode.
- In-room procedures recorded, stocked and billed at the visit
- Audiometry held as structured results that trend across years
- Endoscopy findings and images against the visit that produced them
- Clinic, procedure and day surgery on one record
- Consent for an in-room procedure taken and stored at the visit
Audiometry and endoscopy are records, not attachments
Results that are compared over time need to be structured. A PDF in a folder cannot be trended.
- Consumables drawn down as the procedure is recorded
- Scopes and instruments tracked through cleaning and return
- Stock levels that reflect procedures performed, not a monthly count
- Cost per procedure visible rather than estimated
- Reorder points that hold through a seasonal peak
Seasonal volume
ENT demand swings hard with the season. Capacity and staffing decisions need the previous year visible, not just the previous month.
- Last year's season visible when staffing this one
- Demand by week, not just by month
- Capacity per room and per doctor from the same data
- Day surgery lists built from the clinic's own waiting list
- Reporting that separates consultation from procedure revenue
Three systems versus one record
ENT does consultations, in-room procedures and day surgery for the same patient in the same month, and splitting those across systems is where the stock and the billing drift apart.
The way it is done now
- Procedure as a separate episode
- Audiometry as a PDF
- Stock counted monthly
- Staffing on last month
- Surgery list kept apart
