Pre-Visit Screening Workflow Pulse Call
5/18/20, 12:00 PM
Dear Colleagues,

Thank you to all who joined the Pre-Visit Screening Workflow Pulse Call. If you were not able to participate, please review and  share  the  video  and/or  slides  and links below to ensure that all members of your practice team are aware of the new screening process and tools have been built into Epic and Partners Patient Gateway (PPG).

New Cadence tools are in place to support pre-visit COVID screening activities in ambulatory practices:
  • Scheduling Questionnaire: required, automatic screening questions that guide appropriate scheduling or clinical triage pathway
  • Patient Gateway Questionnaire: automated self-screening tool, pushed to patient 72-hours prior to upcoming visit
  • New DAR Columns: screening questionnaire completion status and result of screening (pass/fail)

We will reconvene today , Tuesday 5/19 at noon for another forum to discuss the reopening timeline and best practices for infection control, capacity management and the patient experience.
