Before implementing PFS, Laughlin Memorial’s admissions process was time-consuming for patients and staff members. When a patient came to the registration desk, a clerk manually retrieved forms based on the type of admission.

Now, after registering a patient in the HIS, the clerk selects the registration type in the Access PFS system and prints a customized forms packet with a single click. 

When Laughlin Memorial’s HIS is down for scheduled maintenance, Access’s e-Forms Repository (EFR) enables clerks to register patients electronically, instead of handwriting patient information on forms.

 On clinical floors, nurses print forms from Access’s e-Forms Repository (EFR) with barcodes and demographics already on them, helping speed clinical processes and reduce delays associated with paper forms processing.

• Existing forms automation system is not well supported and does not have staff buy in
• Patient registration process is time-consuming and forms can be overlooked
• Physical limitations of forms delays information sharing
• Nurses waste time printing forms one by one and affixing labels, and patient forms can be labeled incorrectly

• Access’s proven project methodology ensures nurses and registration clerks are up and running quickly with e-forms management
• Ability to print forms packets on demand ensures fast, error-free registration
• Patient information can be accessed instantly from anywhere in the hospital
• Forms printed with one click with demographics and barcodes on them, eliminating manual tasks and enhancing patient safety
