Form Request & Change Approval
Managing and maintaining current versions of forms in a hospital can be an arduous process – typically involving hundreds, if not thousands of forms.
In most organizations, multidisciplinary teams review, edit, and approve forms and form changes. Different departments often have specific legal, accreditation, and patient care requirements for forms.
Coordinating these requirements, along with the varied schedules of those needed to enact change can be difficult and time-consuming.
Features
The FormFast Forms Approval Automation solution provides organizations and their forms committees with a means to collaborate online through a controlled process to review, discuss, and approve forms. The system allows any hospital employee to electronically contribute to the process by suggesting changes or new forms through a web browser. The change request is automatically routed through appropriate levels of review, and if necessary, is ultimately delivered to an online form committee workgroup that can grant final approval.
The workflow process can be customized to be as simple or complex as your process requires, with rules based routing and site-specific request and approval forms. Once approved, forms are stored in a single repository for all authorized users to access. The forms repository supports version control so your staff only has access to the correct version of forms while your form designers can have access to the complete history of each form.
