Rewind to February, 2020. At that time, virtual visits were an enhanced experience of the healthcare system. However, everyone’s lives changed seemingly overnight, making technology a necessity. As humanity is quickly forced to live in a digital era, clinicians are also required to shift gears. The world is having to adapt– including patients and providers alike.
Here are some tips to help you effectively leverage technology and ease the transition into a more digital model of care.
You can never be too prepared – and patient satisfaction will increase. We must remember – healthcare providers are not immune to customer review websites (e.g. Yelp, Google, etc.).
A good background and decent lighting are keys to making the patient feel more comfortable with their virtual experience – resulting in increased patient satisfaction.
As much as we’d like for technology to work perfectly, sometimes it fails. Providing a phone number at the beginning of your call is a proactive attempt to bypass the unpredictable technology glitches.
Empathy goes a long way, especially with fear and tension rising nowadays.
Patients appreciate a well-dressed provider as it can boost their confidence level in a provider’s experience.
Your virtual visit should feel safe and private to the patient. Using a sound proof area is recommended to accomplish this.
Be sure to introduce yourself, make eye contact, speak directly to the patient, and let them ask questions. Reference our tip sheet for unique insight into removing doctor speak so your patients can better understand you.
This simple gesture gives a sense of respect and lets the patient know they’re important.
We can’t emphasize this enough – the same privacy standards and ethics apply when using a phone (call/text) for patient care purposes as they do in other patient encounters.
Palliative care discussions are a must to deliver compassionate care. Today, some physicians are having these conversations with the patient’s family in nontraditional ways (FaceTime, phone, etc.) given the circumstances. To see more tips on addressing palliative care options, click here.
Discuss standards for telehealth practice to your patients. Explain what can and can’t be done during a virtual visit to set achievable expectations.
Ensure the patient understands the visit length, scope of service, communication, technical overview, and follow-up recommendations.
