Access. The definition is simple – the ability, right or permission to approach, enter, speak with, or use. However, things get much more complicated when the topic turns to a patients access to care – because in order to give one patient access to services, you must move another one out.
To help healthcare executives see the possibilities within their organizations, and how streamlining patient access and throughput via centralized command centers can help, TeleTracking assembled a team of experts who were successful with implementations at their own facilities. The team included:
Holly Meisner, VP, Patient Access, NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, NY
Amy Finnell, Director, Patient Logistics, St. Elizabeth Healthcare, KY
Melanie Morris, Sr. Director, Emergency Services, Carilion Clinic, VA
Russell Rooms, Clinical Specialist, Emergency Services, Oklahoma University Medical Center, OK
Joy Avery, VP, Clinical Strategy, Maria Romano, Client Success Manager & Josh Wenzel, Client Success Manager, TeleTracking
Then we took things on the road – Transforming Patient Access – an executive forum – with interactive sessions in New York and Chicago.
