Delegate Document Review To Save Time

Jul 17, 2023 | Deanna Cavanagh

As a doctor, your time is precious. You have patients to attend to, diagnoses to make, and treatment plans to develop. However, a significant portion of your time is often spent on clerical tasks such as reviewing and processing documents. This can be a time-consuming and tedious process, taking away from your ability to focus on what matters most – your patients. That’s why it’s essential to delegate some of these tasks to your clerical staff.

Here are some ways your clerical staff can review your documents to save you time:

Organizing documents:

One of the most time-consuming aspects of reviewing documents is organizing them in a way that makes sense. Your clerical staff can help by creating a filing system that allows you to easily locate the documents you need. They can organize files by date, patient, or type of document, so you don’t have to spend hours sifting through paperwork.

Checking for completeness:

Before you review a document, your clerical staff can ensure that it is complete. They can check for missing pages, signatures, or other critical information that may be required. This will save you time and prevent you from having to go back and request missing information later.

Highlighting key information:

Your clerical staff can help by highlighting key information within the document, such as lab results or medication lists. This will allow you to quickly locate the information you need without having to read through the entire document.

Verifying accuracy:

Your clerical staff can verify that the information in the document is accurate. They can check for errors, inconsistencies, or discrepancies that may need to be addressed. This will save you time by preventing you from having to go back and correct errors later.

Communicating with patients:

Your clerical staff can communicate with patients to request missing information or follow up on questions. This will save you time by allowing you to focus on other tasks while ensuring that you have all the information you need.

Digitizing documents:

By digitizing documents, your clerical staff can help you access documents quickly and easily from anywhere. This can be especially helpful if you need to review documents while away from the office.

Your clerical staff can be a valuable resource in helping you review and process documents. By delegating some of these tasks to your staff, you can save time, reduce stress, and focus on what matters most – your patients. So, take advantage of your clerical staff and let them help you manage your paperwork efficiently.
