Your provider's time is one of the most important resources of your office. Managing that time is vital. Partner's scheduling module is called sam, which is short for "Scheduling and Appointment Minder." The sam program is a patient scheduling system that finds the best appointment time for your patients while helping to ensure your provider's time is used well.
Here are just some of the key features of sam:
Automatically finds the best open appointment times based on your criteria
Provides quick access to all open time slots
Allows convenient patient scheduling by multiple people simultaneously
Offers appointment openings based on your providers' individual needs and preferences
Manages dozens of providers easily
Searches through multiple providers' schedules at once using provider groups
Can find concurrent or adjacent appointment times for siblings or schedule a single patient with both a provider and an assistant at the same time
Synchronizes scheduling information with the patient record or your EMR
Coordinates schedule information with the rest of Partner to produce visit and/or provider specific encounter forms, handouts, and charge-posting screens.
Reserves sick time and other types of "blocks" throughout your schedule
If your office does not use sam, contact PCC. We will assist you in configuring the scheduler to match your needs and provide unlimited training for your staff.
