This is how you speed up patient registration with digital forms for healthcare alongside no-code apps for healthcare WITH examples and use cases
Today, I’m giving you a behind the curtain look at the forms2 platform and how our healthcare industry customers who build no-code healthcare apps speed up patient registration with digital forms for healthcare and no-code data capture apps for healthcare professionals and healthcare organisations.
Best of all they do it in weeks, not months.
Compliant, fast to roll out, integrated with your tech stack and best of all – reliable, which is absolutely what you need when it comes to patient care. What’s not to love?
Let’s break down the advantages of shifting patient registration to digital forms and no-code apps for healthcare. I’ll show you five practical ways healthcare customers are using digital forms to improve patient registration while sharing real examples of how they’re transforming healthcare operations and making things easier for patients, doctors, nurses and the citizen developers and IT teams in healthcare.
Why is Streamlining Patient Registration Crucial?
Streamlining patient registration is essential because it sets the tone for a patient’s entire medical experience with you. If the process is slow or difficult, patients might feel frustrated right from the start, which could discourage them from returning. For the NHS, speeding up registration could help manage high patient volumes and reduce waiting times, ensuring people get care faster and more efficiently. Automating the registration process with digital forms can save time, reduce paperwork, and free up staff to focus on patient care.
PLUS – deciphering doctors’ handwriting, and manually organising and managing patient records is a time suck – so this makes it MUCH faster.
For American healthcare providers, including private practices, dentistry, or plastic surgery clinics, the focus is often on offering a premium, seamless experience. A streamlined digital registration process improves the patient’s first impression and keeps things running smoothly while remaining compliant as all data the insurance companies need is captured.
In a competitive market where patient satisfaction is critical, offering easy online check-in with digital forms that you can fill out quickly makes the whole experience feel more modern and convenient, which is key for retaining patients and growing your business.
This actually happened with one of our customers as a white-label app partner built a no-code apps & digital forms for healthcare business in a box for £750* per month! Which meant they grew their healthcare business thanks to no-code apps and digital forms for healthcare and patient treatment/intake.
Take this quote from one of our customers:
“We knew that all the mobile healthcare providers were struggling with the paper-based patient care records that were created by field staff when they were attending any incidents,” said Pete. “The info was often incomplete, illegible due to terrible handwriting, or it was verbally given and not written down anywhere, resulting in effort being duplicated by the healthcare staff onsite and dragging out the time taken to transfer patients to hospitals where necessary.”
Sound familar?
Let’s get to the benefits.
Benefits of No-Code & Digital Forms for Patient Registration & Healthcare
1. Capture Critical Incident Information Fast
One of the major features in healthcare digital forms we get asked for in our no-code app builder is the ability to capturing data and essential patient details quickly during patient registration. This also helps in an emergency situation because paramedics or those treating the patient can quickly fill out charts and forms (when they get a second of course) without fear of forgetting something due to required fields.
The “Call Details” digital form example allows healthcare staff to record critical information such as the incident location, time of call, and crew details in real-time. With a simple, no-code digital form, staff can fill out this information directly on a mobile device or tablet, when they get a moment, whether in the ambulance or at the scene eliminating the need for paper records and reducing the risk of errors during patient intake.
You can see in the example below you have all the info you need about the scene.
In a similar scenario, White-Label Healthcare Data Collection Company used forms2 to create event-specific healthcare data capture apps. These apps allowed event medical staff to register patients faster by quickly collecting relevant information through easy-to-use, HIPAA-compliant forms, significantly improving the registration process for public healthcare providers at large-scale events.
2. Simplify Personal Information Collection
If you’re dealing with a lot of patients, you need to make sure you get the right details down. Get it wrong and it could be devastating. Because patient onboarding often requires the collection of basic personal details such as name, date of birth, gender, and address, it takes a long time if you’re writing it out – and if someone else sis doing it, the handwriting might be illegible.
So, digital healthcare forms like the “Personal Information” form we have in our no-code app for healthcare streamlines this process by digitising data entry, reducing manual paperwork and ensuring that information is captured correctly because it’s a keyboard – NOT a pen. With required fields, staff can be sure that no essential information is missed, and the process is made much more efficient.
One of the major benefits of using this, again, was where White-Label Healthcare Data Collection Company leveraged forms2’s no-code platform to implement digital forms for healthcare providers working at public events. By switching to digital personal information forms, they reduced patient registration times 10x and ensured consistent data capture for event attendees, boosting accuracy and making the process faster for everyone involved so patients got treated faster and were referred correctly
3. Speed Up Consent Collection
Collecting patient consent is a crucial part of the registration process, especially when dealing with medical records and treatments and insurance firms.
The “Photo Evidence and Consent” form provides a digital way to capture signatures and photo evidence, ensuring that patient consent is securely obtained and stored in your tech stack/cloud storage – no paper consent forms anywhere here!
There are MAJOR benefits to using e-signatures and QR code scanning in digital forms as it speeds up the process, eliminates paperwork, and ensures compliance with regulations like HIPAA and GDPR.
If you’ve got consent forms filled out correctly, you’re insured AND compliant!
4. Visual Injury Documentation
Accurate injury documentation is essential for both patient care and legal purposes, and the “Trauma & Immobilization” digital form you can have in your healthcare app enables healthcare professionals to visually document patient injuries directly on a body diagram by physically drawing it on.
There are THREE reasons that this digital form benefits healthcare providers.
ONE: This not only ensures that all details about the patient’s injuries are captured clearly and accurately, making it easier for the care team to understand and act on the information.
TWO: It also makes sure that during patient registration in emergency settings, injuries are communicated quickly and efficiently.
THREE: If there’s a language barrier or you’re treating children, the elderly or those with cognitive issues who can’t speak but just point to the issue, or are unconscious, you can mark the injury or most pertinent area of treatment on the form so they are seen to correctly.
In their white-label solution for event healthcare providers, White-Label Healthcare Data Collection Company used similar forms to document injuries at large events, ensuring that staff could accurately track patient conditions and relay the information to other medical teams quickly. This made patient handoffs and reporting significantly more efficient.
5. Detailed Medical Observation Form
The medical observations digital form includes several critical medical checks that healthcare professionals NEED to do. This example includes assessing for catastrophic haemorrhage, checking airway clarity, monitoring breathing and circulation, and noting other symptoms. These observations are part of the primary survey for patient assessment and any healthcare provider knows that filling these out on paper forms is going to take too long after you’ve assessed them, or if you’re going through the preliminary checks. Digital forms make it faster, and can show you went through the exact steps to keep you compliant.
The benefit here is that healthcare professionals like you can capture essential patient data quickly, ensuring the patient gets the right treatment. The using a digital form isntead of paper improves efficiency by reducing paperwork and helps maintain compliance with medical regulations like HIPAA and GDPR.
