Healthcare processes
Healthcare processes encompass the steps involved in maintaining and improving health. It starts with seeking care, such as visiting a doctor or specialist, followed by diagnosis through exams and tests. Treatment may include medication, therapy, or procedures. During this, health records are documented for ongoing management. Aftercare involves monitoring progress, lifestyle advice, and follow-up appointments. Administrative tasks like appointment scheduling, billing, and insurance claims support the cycle. Efficient healthcare processes ensure patients receive timely, appropriate care while managing resources effectively, leading to better health outcomes and a smoother experience for patients and providers alike.
