HealthManagement, Volume 5 / Issue 5 / 2010
Agfa HealthCare, a leading provider of diagnostic imaging and healthcare IT solutions, is introducing IMPAX Kiosk, its latest workflow enhancement, designed to streamline check-in and improve the patient experience. IMPAX Kiosk is an interactive system that enables patients to register with, and check-in to hospital services without going through the traditional administration desks.
The system is intuitive and very easy for patients to use. The patients identify themselves directly on IMPAX Kiosk, view and confirm demographic and insurance information, and electronically sign consent documents. IMPAX Kiosk includes multi-language options; clinic messaging of important announcements to all patients; and personalized messaging, for example, if a specific patient is due for a blood pressure check. For optimum security, the patient data is not held in IMPAX Kiosk itself, and a privacy filter can be added that prevents others from viewing the screen. IMPAX Kiosk is fully integrated into Agfa HealthCare's IMPAX radiology information system (RIS), which allows for real-time updates of patient status. It also easily integrates within external systems, with minimal implementation work and no programming.
