Patient tracking software, patient management software, patient records software - call it what you like, but patient software has become as much of a staple as the stethoscope in medical practices. Medical practitioners in private practice, clinics and hospitals are using patient management software to keep up with the daily challenges of managing patients. With the help of patient systems that deliver convenient access to records, scheduling and patient care tracking, you can boost productivity and patient satisfaction.

Look for the following features in patient software:

  1. Patient management software that provides easy access to the data physicians need to make critical decisions in an emergency.
  2. Patient software that offers the option to revise chart formats and templates to suit your own preferences.
  3. Interoperability with your other patient records software, medical practice management software and other programs that you rely on.

Action Steps
The best contacts and resources to help you get it done

Keep patient records at your fingertips with patient records software


Be more responsive to patient needs with patient tracking software, which provides ready access to patient data.

I recommend: Practice Partner Patient Records software is an electronic medical records (EMR) system that also includes a prescription writing tool and allows you to import lab data from in-house or outside labs. PatientKeeper is a patient software program that works on desktop computers as well as mobile devices, giving physicians the flexibility to view patient charts, write electronic prescriptions, order outpatient procedures patients and manage other tasks from just about anywhere.

Patient tracking software for healthcare organizations


Patient tracking software can come to the rescue of hospitals and clinics that strain to keep up with the status of patient wait times, treatment schedules and other critical matters.

I recommend: Patienttrack.net's web-based patient tracking software is designed for healthcare organizations that need a more efficient way to stay on top of factors such as room availability and patients' total time in care. StatCom patient tracking software and flow logistics gives hospitals a view of the complete patient flow process.

Streamline appointments with patient scheduling software


Thanks to patient scheduling software, medical appointment scheduling has come a long way from the days of paper-based appointment books. Ideal for busy medical practices with numerous physicians and multiple offices, patient scheduling software programs reduce errors in scheduling and streamline the appointment process.

I recommend: Spectrasoft's AppointmentsPRO is a patient scheduling software program that lets you make and change patient appointments with the click of a mouse. You can also quickly access patient information and monitor insurance coverage. Multi-site medical practices can schedule appointments with Spectrasoft's AppointmentsCS, which puts all locations and departments into a centralized scheduling system. AppointmentQuest is a web-based patient scheduling software program that gives patients the option of going online to set their own appointments.
