MAITLAND, Fla. – Galvanon, an NCR Corporation company, announced that Carolinas HealthCare System has deployed the MediKiosk patient self-service solution to streamline the patient check-in process. CHS, the largest health-care system in the Carolinas and third-largest not-for-profit system in the United States, implemented MediKiosk at the Carolinas Medical Center One Day Surgery Center in Charlotte, N.C.
MediKiosk provides patient check-in and checkout processes by allowing patients to identify themselves upon arrival at the facility, view and confirm demographic and insurance information, electronically sign consent documents, enter medical history information and make copayments.
Patients can choose to interact with the kiosk in either English or Spanish. Patient information flows to the hospital's back-end systems, helping reduce administrative costs for the organization and minimizing the risk of error.
Galvanon's MediKiosk is part of a suite of products that allows hospitals and clinics to provide patient self-service capabilities such as pre-registration via the Web, online bill pay and eClipboards, Galvanon's wireless patient check-in solution.
