Gastroenterology Surgical Workflow

Discover how Gastroenterology-Cloud, a Meaningful Use-certified EHR and practice management system, is designed to support gastroenterology practices with seamless workflow automation for colonoscopies, endoscopies, liver biopsies, and other GI procedures.

Surgical Workflow Automation for Efficiency and Accuracy

In a busy gastroenterology practice, coordinating procedures and treatment plans can become an administrative challenge. The Gastroenterology Surgical Workflow Queue streamlines the process from preoperative planning through postoperative care, ensuring each step is efficiently documented and executed.

Preoperative

Before a procedure, all necessary steps are managed within the system, including:

  • Insurance preauthorizations and cost estimates
  • Medical clearance and risk assessments
  • Scheduling and coordination of GI procedures
  • Preoperative lab orders and required diagnostics
  • Digital consent forms for colonoscopies, endoscopies, and liver biopsies
  • Automatic communication with procedural teams

Peri-operative

On the day of the procedure and in the immediate postoperative period, the system ensures:

  • Precise documentation of procedural techniques and intraoperative findings
  • Automated charge capture linked to the procedure note
  • Seamless integration with billing, preventing reimbursement delays

Postoperative

Complete tracking and documentation ensure:

  • Follow-up visits and ongoing treatment adjustments are accurately recorded
  • Alerts for global billing periods to prevent missed reimbursement opportunities
  • Reconciliation of procedural outcomes within patient records

Completed

Post-procedure care is properly recorded and billed. The workflow queue helps:

  • Review past procedures and track any complications or required adjustments
  • Document and analyze surgical outcomes to refine clinical processes
  • Monitor canceled procedures and document reasons for improved operational insight

Informed Consent Documentation

Gastroenterology-Cloud ensures full documentation of informed consent before any procedure. Signed consent forms are stored directly in the EHR, and practices utilizing digital signatures can have patient authorizations uploaded automatically, ensuring compliance and accessibility.
