How we can help you right now

Our COVID-19 toolkit offers a safer workflow for staff and patients in the midst of the pandemic.

ER Express supports acute care facilities like EDs, urgent cares, and walk-in clinics with queuing technology that preserves social distancing, including:

Online virtual waiting room or text to join waiting list.
Scheduling for telehealth appointments
Text-based wait time and treatment time patient notifications.
Pre-screening questionnaires and interactive chat bot that can give patients instructions, answer questions, and direct them to virtual care or PCP.
Patient referrals electronically from local PCPs, telehealth, etc. – For EDs only

Virtual waiting room

Take control over the waiting process by digitizing it. Our digital patient queuing tool helps to promote social distancing while redistributing patient arrival times and onsite wait times.

Online – Give patients the option to hold their spot in line online and wait from home, not your waiting room.
Walk-in – For walk-in patients, allow them to get in line via text message and wait from their car.

Telehealth scheduling

If you already have a telehealth solution or are considering one, we offer the ability for your staff to set a telehealth schedule based on physician availability and allow patients to select from an offering of times to book their virtual visit. Why is the ability to schedule virtual visits online important? Here’s a few advantages:

Answering phones is a drain on staff time. Allowing patients to book their appointment online frees up the phone lines.
Patients can select a time that works for them rather than waiting on a physician to show up.
Patients can book their appointment after hours.
Staff have insight of patient information, including visit reason, ahead of time.
Online booking allows for communication between patients and staff via text, email, or phone.

Text-based communication

Both walk-in and online check-in patients sign in upon arrival from their phones instead of a kiosk from a safer distance, such as from the parking lot. Here’s how it works:

Ask patients to send a text with your unique keyword from their car.
They’ll receive a simple, online sign-in form to collect their basic information and put them in line.
Automated texts instruct patients to remain in their car and set expectations around the waiting process.
You can call patients and/or trigger a text when you are ready to see them.
