Each node represents an automated step. Connections show how data and decisions move through the workflow.
Detailed explanation of each automated stage in the workflow.
Patient submits appointment request through portal or staff member initiates scheduling for existing patient. System captures patient ID, preferred dates, and treatment type needed.
System queries EHR for counselor/physician schedules based on patient's treatment plan and provider specialization. Identifies optimal appointment slots within patient preferences.
System assesses if this is urgent care, routine follow-up, or medication management appointment. Routes high-priority cases for immediate scheduling within 24-48 hours.
Automatically books appointment in EHR system and sends confirmation to patient via their preferred communication method. Updates treatment schedule and provider calendar.
Delivers automated reminders 48 hours, 24 hours, and 2 hours before appointment via SMS, email, or phone based on patient preferences. Includes pre-visit instructions and telehealth links if applicable.
Monitors patient confirmations and no-show patterns to identify at-risk patients. Automatically reschedules missed appointments and alerts care team for follow-up outreach.
Produces reports on appointment completion rates, no-show patterns by treatment type, and provider utilization. Creates alerts for patients with multiple missed appointments requiring intervention.
