Unify Visit Details Screen For In-Person & Virtual Visits
=====================================================
Introduction
As healthcare continues to evolve, the need for a unified visit details screen for both in-person and virtual visits has become increasingly important. Currently, we have a visit details screen for in-person visits, but an older version for virtual visits that is hidden. Our goal is to unify these two screens, making it easier for patients to access and manage their visit information, regardless of whether they are attending in-person or virtually.
Problem Statement
The current state of our visit details screen is fragmented, with separate screens for in-person and virtual visits. This creates confusion and inconvenience for patients, who need to navigate different interfaces to access their visit information. Moreover, the older virtual visit details screen is outdated and lacks the functionality and features that are available on the in-person visit details screen.
Solution Overview
To address this issue, we propose unifying the in-person and virtual visit details screens into a single, cohesive interface. This new screen will provide patients with a seamless and intuitive experience, allowing them to access and manage their visit information, including paperwork, eligibility, and fax information, regardless of whether they are attending in-person or virtually.
Design Requirements
The unified visit details screen should meet the following design requirements:
- Paperwork Information: The screen should display all relevant paperwork information, including patient consent forms, medical history, and other relevant documents.
- Eligibility Information: The screen should display eligibility information, including insurance coverage, copays, and other relevant details.
- Fax Information: The screen should display fax information, including the ability to send and receive faxes electronically.
- In-Person and Virtual Visit Information: The screen should display information specific to both in-person and virtual visits, including appointment details, provider information, and other relevant details.
- User-Friendly Interface: The screen should have a user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate and understand, with clear and concise language and minimal clutter.
Technical Requirements
The unified visit details screen should meet the following technical requirements:
- Integration with Existing Systems: The screen should integrate with existing systems, including electronic health records (EHRs), practice management systems (PMS), and other relevant systems.
- Security and Compliance: The screen should meet all relevant security and compliance requirements, including HIPAA and other regulatory requirements.
- Scalability and Performance: The screen should be scalable and performant, with the ability to handle high volumes of traffic and data.
Acceptance Criteria
The unified visit details screen should meet the following acceptance criteria:
- Paperwork Information: The screen displays all relevant paperwork information, including patient consent forms, medical history, and other relevant documents.
- Eligibility Information: The screen displays eligibility information, including insurance coverage, copays, and other relevant details.
- Fax Information: The screen displays fax information, including the ability to send and receive faxes electronically.

- User-Friendly Interface: The screen has a user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate and understand, with clear and concise language and minimal clutter.
Note for QA Team
The QA team should update the test plan to include the following test cases:
- Paperwork Information: Test that the screen displays all relevant paperwork information, including patient consent forms, medical history, and other relevant documents.
- Eligibility Information: Test that the screen displays eligibility information, including insurance coverage, copays, and other relevant details.
- Fax Information: Test that the screen displays fax information, including the ability to send and receive faxes electronically.
- In-Person and Virtual Visit Information: Test that the screen displays information specific to both in-person and virtual visits, including appointment details, provider information, and other relevant details.
- User-Friendly Interface: Test that the screen has a user-friendly interface that is easy to navigate and understand, with clear and concise language and minimal clutter.
Conclusion
In conclusion, unifying the in-person and virtual visit details screens is a critical step towards providing patients with a seamless and intuitive experience. By meeting the design and technical requirements outlined above, we can create a unified visit details screen that meets the needs of both patients and healthcare providers.
