Phases are the foundations of Pathways and each pathway card moves through the different phases via transitions. Using phases, you can organize pathway cards into different columns by the stage they are currently in.
There are three default virtual visit phases: Pre Visit, Visit, and Post Visit.
You can streamline appointment tasks (or actions) that staff or patients must complete by assigning each action to a phase, resulting in improved collaboration and patient care. For more information, see Creating Patient Actions for your Pathways and Creating Staff Actions for your Pathways.
For example, in the Pre Visit phase, you can task the MOA with preparing the patient file and making sure all patient actions are completed. Then, once the patient transitions to the Visit phase, the provider can see the patient, knowing that all pre-visit tasks are complete.
