scheduling capacity

[Guest guest]

Good morning,

I'm hoping for some feedback regarding how others are designing their

patient schedules. My supervisor is asking that I begin seeing 12

patients daily. My current capacity is 9, and when it fills up, the

day is crazy and I'm behind on documentation (we use electronic

medical records). My main concern is quality of care, so I'm

researching what my peers are doing in order to bring the info back to

my supervisor.

My questions for those in a clinic/outpatient

education setting are:

How many patients do you schedule daily?

How long are your appointments? (Initial and follow-up)

Do you have time allotted for documentation and administrative tasks?

Any feedback would be appreciated!

Thanks,
