 Telemedicine
Integration:

Identify suitable cases for telemedicine:

Focus on medical conditions that can be
handled remotely to reduce unnecessary
hospital visits.

Develop a smart scheduling system:

Create a system that schedules telemedicine
appointments based on patient condition
and doctor availability, giving priority to
more critical cases.
 Managing Patient
Flow:

Optimize in-person visits:

Design a system to manage hospital
appointments that minimizes wait times and
ensures quick and efficient patient care.

Use telemedicine for non-urgent cases:

Employ telemedicine as an alternative for
non-urgent cases, relieving pressure on the
hospital and optimizing time and resources.
 Resource
Management:

Efficient allocation of resources:

Ensure that doctors, rooms, and equipment
are used effectively for both in-person and
virtual consultations.

Prioritize high-cost resources:

Make sure that expensive equipment and
rooms are reserved for critical cases to
avoid unnecessary use.
 Cost
Reduction:

Utilize telemedicine for cost savings:

Identify areas where telemedicine can cut
costs, such as reducing unnecessary tests
and hospital stays.

Automate administrative processes:

Use technology to streamline billing and
documentation, saving time and reducing
errors.
