Insert your summary below this line.

Patients at the clinic must wait in long, well-organized lines. Most hospitals still manually document and identify patients. People should bring their initial hospitalization patient record book. This book is an excellent resource for earlier therapies. Duly because this information is difficult to come by, many individuals forget or never learn about the past. It will take a long to process all the patients in the queue (Baek et al., 2018). Patients are then required to transport the book between hospital units. Doctors and specialists update these volumes. They accessed the hospital's information channels.

Six sigma is used to determine the most crucial component of each flowchart. Concerns are raised in the report about prompt, patient-centered care, and service quality. These flaws were caused by the previous patient registration and record-keeping procedure. This method resulted in the loss of critical data and impeded service delivery.

EHR, electronic health record, makes identifying and recording patient information easier (Atasoy, Greenwood, & McCullough, 2019). There will be fewer bottlenecks and more proactive treatment as a result. It will also make stored data more accessible and interpretable with less corruption.

The new method eliminates the need to manually search for and enter patient data. This saves the physician time while searching for a patient's name. After entering the patient's name, they can access the patient's record. This patient should be registered. They must discuss their history and hospital visits. Before being transported, the patient must wait for their name to be called. Doctors can enter a patient's name to obtain all pertinent information and reasoning.

This novel method will reduce hospital admissions. This method shortens wait times and improves service. If the doctor responds quickly to the patient's needs, his or her therapy will improve. It will keep the patient from worsening while he or she waits for assistance. The method enhances data storage and retrieval, hence increasing productivity.

A new piece of technology will be deployed as part of the upgrade. EHRs improve treatment efficiency and health outcomes. The procedural flowchart will be changed to emphasize names and make identification easier. When evaluating patient records, doctors exclusively utilize patient names. They can improve patient treatment by keeping the information up to date. The procedure will improve patient care while decreasing errors.
