Article Synopsis
- Outpatient clinic loads can be overwhelming for clinicians, leading to delays for more urgent cases due to unnecessary visits.
- A study was conducted to assess the benefits of using phone follow-ups and physician assistant triage systems in reducing unnecessary clinic attendance in a gastroenterology department.
- Results showed that over 30% of outpatient visits could be managed differently, potentially saving 17% in salary costs and improving clinic efficiency through better prescreening practices.
