Which feature allows healthcare facilities to confirm patient information before their appointments in Epic Prelude?

Pre-registration is the feature in Epic Prelude that enables healthcare facilities to confirm patient information before their appointments. This process allows facilities to gather essential demographic and insurance information from patients before they arrive for their visit. By verifying this data ahead of time, healthcare providers can ensure that they have accurate and complete information, which minimizes the potential for errors and streamlines the appointment process.

Patients typically receive prompts to complete their pre-registration online, which may involve confirming or updating their personal details, insurance information, and any other relevant health history. This proactive approach helps to improve operational efficiency and enhances the patient experience by reducing the amount of time spent on administrative tasks during check-in.

Other options, while relevant in different contexts, do not specifically address the confirmation of patient information prior to appointments. Patient self-check-in focuses more on the check-in process itself, health history collection pertains to gathering information about the patient's medical background during a visit, and emergency contact verification ensures that healthcare providers have the necessary contacts in case of an emergency, but does not deal with confirming the patient’s appointment-related information.
