Scheduling patients for MRI, CT scan, ultrasound, PET scan, echo, and nuclear medicine requires careful coordination to ensure all pre-scan requirements are met. Each type of imaging may have specific preparation instructions, such as fasting or avoiding certain medications. It's essential to confirm availability of both the equipment and any necessary personnel, such as radiologists or technicians, to minimize patient wait times. Clear communication with patients about the scheduling process, preparation, and estimated time for each procedure can improve overall experience and reduce cancellations.
Maintained confidentiality of all patient information in accordance with HIPAA regulations.
Answered phones promptly in a professional manner.
Performed pre-registration functions, such as verifying demographic information and obtaining authorizations.
