Vecna Online Pre-Registration

Vecna’s online patient portal empowers patients to manage their care when and where they choose.  Automating intake tasks frees staff to focus on patient care, while helping address front desk staff shortages. Patients review and update demographics and insurance eligibility for accurate real-time intake data collection. Co-pay and cost estimates as well as bill pay options throughout the intake process simplify and increase revenue per patient. Surveys and questionnaires are completed prior to appointments, reducing time spent in the waiting room. Digital signatures for consent forms are collected as part of online pre-registration, eliminating the need for onsite staff to do so. Changes made in the pre-check process are reflected in Vecna's staff facing administrative tool.
