7 Features to Include In Your Medical Equipment Tracking Forms
Quality healthcare requires a client-centric, efficient-focused HIPAA-secure form solution
Whether you’ve just created your first HIPAA-secure form in the GoFormz platform or your entire form collection is already digital, these seven features can take your digital forms and data capture to the next level.
Checkbox fields - Using Checkboxes, your team can easily note which equipment has been turned in, checked out, or inventory levels. For example, when evaluating medical supplies, like surgical supplies in each surgical room, medical items can be checked off through Checkbox fields through digital forms - ensuring real-time access to data and reducing opportunities for human error.
Required fields - Improve compliance by utilizing logic to make fields Required to ensure necessary data is captured before submission, ensuring those tasked with medical equipment tracking procedures are fully completing documentation. You can also change the background color to indicate the field is mandatory by changing the color hex in the background property. For example, in order to check out medical equipment, like testing supplies, a Signature can be made Required in order to ensure a form is properly filled out. If the form is attempted to be turned in prior to signing the form, a dialogue box will appear alerting them they have not completed the necessary field(s).
Signatures - Capture electronic Signatures with mobile forms, and quickly recall and reference electronic Signatures, as soon as possible - expediting approval processes and approvals. Additionally, Signature fields can be configured so that it automatically clears once additional edits have been made to a form – ensuring the integrity of input Signatures as well as making the signee aware of changes.
Automated form routing - Instantly route completed medical equipment tracking forms to supervisors, streamlining communication and effortlessly enhancing workflows. Automated form routing can be used to elevate patient communications, partner collaboration, and so much more.
Business Integrations - Connect your GoFormz account to your other business applications like Box and Google Suite, and enrich your systems with real-time data.
Barcodes - Include Barcode fields in your forms and enable users to quickly scan barcodes using their device’s camera and instantly populate relevant fields with data. A user can simply scan the medical equipment’s barcode and instantly fill corresponding fields (e.g. serial numbers, storage location, etc.), rather than needing to individually enter several fields for each piece of equipment.
Auto-populated fields - Pre-populate forms with medical device information by leveraging DataSources and Database fields, like Drop Down menus. For example, if a user were to select a medical supply from a Drop Down menu, the information pertaining to that field would populate.
