Ambulatory
Care / Outpatients
Module
Overview
The
Ambulatory Care module controls the movement of outpatients within
the hospital. This starts with the pre-registration routine that
provides advance information on patients scheduled for registration.
The Ambulatory Care module is closely coupled with the HTC Central
Patient Index (CPI) module. It provides the authorized system user
with up-to-date information on patient status, account balance,
and history information. It also provides information on hospital
resource management such as Appointment Lists and Expired Bookings,
and transfers registration data to the integrated HTC Health Records
Abstracting module or third party system for abstracting of Day
Surgery visits.
