            Az-Zahrah Hospital faced challenges with outdated manual processes, leading to long wait times and patient dissatisfaction, particularly for those with special needs. The lack of patient tracking caused delays and congestion, while communication gaps left patients unsure about their status. Insufficient stage integration also disrupted communication between staff and patients
The integration between
                different
                    stages has been less effective, and communication between staff and patients has
                occasionally led to
                misunderstandings. These issues have sometimes disrupted the flow of operations
                
                The hospital’s first-come, first-served system caused congestion during peak hours,
                with patients
                    arriving early and waiting up to 4 hours. Doctor emergencies worsened delays,

                    satisfaction
            
Az-Zahrah Hospital partnered with Chup Online to reduce patient wait times and enhance management, aiming for better efficiency and a smoother patient experience

Shifts to automated data management, linking with the hospital's HIS
                Appointment scheduling was enhanced, allowing
                    Clinic Assistants to adjust appointments easily. Features like Custom Close and
                    Emergency Close
                    prevented bottlenecks, while the On-Off feature optimized service hours to reduce peak congestion
                    
                    Patients receive automatic notifications of appointment rescheduling, whether due
                    to emergencies or
                    general adjustments. This ensures they are informed of updated doctor availability, preventing
                    inconvenience and ensuring timely arrivals. The system also eliminates the need for
                    individual
                    patient contact, streamlining communication and enhancing the overall experience for both patients
                    and staff
                
                At Chup, we use WhatsApp to enhance patient communication, making it seamless and convenient. Patients in the live queue or with scheduled appointments receive timely notifications and reminders via WhatsApp, tailored to admin settings. This keeps patients informed about their status and necessary actions, streamlining communication and ster reducing manual follow-ups. Patients also get updates on estimated wait times during their visit, ensuring clear communication, managing expectations, and improving their overall experience
                The Appointment Merge with Live Queue feature
                    integrates scheduled appointments and walk-in patients into a unified, real-time queue. This allows
                    administrators to oversee and manage all patients for the day from a single interface, ensuring an
                    organized and efficient patient flow. By combining these lists, the system provides a
                    comprehensive
                        view of the day’s schedule and current patient status, streamlining operations and
                    enhancing overall
                    efficiency
                    
                    The Early Arrival Button significantly improves the check-in process for patients who arrive
                        early
                    by quickly adding them to the Live Queue. This feature allows reception staff to
                    efficiently manage
                    early arrivals, enhancing scheduling flexibility and reducing wait times.
                
                Our advanced appointment management system enhances scheduling by minimizing gaps between appointments and reducing buffer times. By setting 'limited slots,' the system prompts patients to select from the nearest available times, ensuring a continuous flow of visits and optimal use of time slots. This approach reduces wait times and boosts operational efficiency, creating a more organized and predictable scheduling process. Patients benefit from timely and seamless visits, while providers can manage their schedules with greater accuracy, leading to improved service quality and overall satisfaction
                Chup Online integrates smoothly with the hospital's HIS, automating the management of patient IDs, MRNs, and family data. It handles complex scenarios such as shared MRNs for family members and data for newborns, ensuring accuracy and real-time updates. The new Add Dependants feature simplifies registering up to 5 family members per visit. This integration reduces manual tasks, enhances data accuracy, and improves overall operational efficiency and patient experience
After Chup Online’s implementation, patient wait times dropped to 5-17 minutes, with special needs patients receiving expedited care. Real-time updates and queue management improved patient satisfaction to 98%, as they were kept informed throughout their visits, easing anxiety.
            According to Dr. Azmaniza Baharudin's dashboard, there has been a notable reduction in the average wait time for patients. Patients with appointments now wait only 3 minutes on average, while walk-in patients experience a wait time of around 5 minutes. Impressively, some patients are seen within just 1 minute of their arrival. Additionally, the average service duration is efficient, lasting approximately 28 minutes. This demonstrates that patients are promptly attended to with minimal delays for data verification, resulting in a seamless and swift experience.
