?:definition
  • Hospital data management information systems designed for automated managing of ambulatory patient flow and queuing from registration to discharge in a healthcare facility. These systems typically consist of a combination of hardware and dedicated software. The hardware typically includes dedicated network servers, computers, and other devices such as ticket printers, displays, and audio systems to supply information to the patient. The software consists of a dedicated software package that ensures that the patient is properly guided through the hospital facility and that the process is documented at every step (e.g., appointment validation, proper procedure). The software can also provide statistics regarding the waiting periods and time spent in each procedure, permitting informed decisions about the staff and clinic performance. Patient flow information data management systems may function as stand-alone systems or may be integrated in a hospital-wide data management information system network; some systems may also perform a complete patient registration.
