Team follow-up sessions

• Do you have a patient with a form that needs to be completed soon? A patient who needs a quick B/P check? A patient who needs sooner follow-up to review lab results?

• If you have no available appointments, use the Team Follow-up session.

• Each team will have 2 sessions/month that can be booked only with that team’s follow-up patients—patients who need a quick, focused visit.

Level of Care for team follow-up

• Document exactly what needs to be done with your patient.

• The team resident does only what you indicated—not a comprehensive visit, but rather a focused visit.

• For Z-outs, this will likely be a level 3 visit• Send a short email to the referring colleague, if

indicated. For example—”Mr. Lee’s B/P=134/70; he is tolerating dyazide well.”

I’m a PGY-3 and I don’t have enough clinic slots to see my patients…what can I do?

PGY-3 Special Sessions

• Each PGY-3 will have one session/month that only he/she can book patients into. This will make it possible for you to follow your own patients.

• There will be 6 slots initially, increasing to seven in Jan 2012.

• This dedicated follow-up session should obviate the need to overbook.

Can you view future booking?

• Sure! Ask any PCA or clerical person to show you the availability of these special sessions. It takes a few minutes, so try to pick a time when the staff isn’t busy. They are willing and able to help you.

Caveats….

• You can see other/additional patients if your Special Sessions, Team Follow ups or Planned visits are not booked and confirmed or are NO-SHOW

• Planned visits should be confirmed by you!!!• Make a note in “other contact”• Booking Associates will check your panel the

night before to identify any unused/unconfirmed/open slots that can be used for refills or overflow….
