PAS-MD (Doctor's Practice Management)

The PAS-MD platform allows for the management of all aspects of a medical practitioner’s processes:

  • Accessing of a patient’s electronic docket - Using the Unique Medical Record number or the patient’s name(s) the doctor can access all medical documents for the patient.  All access is carefully monitored ensuring the integrity of the patient’s information including strict logging for any audit processes.
  • Appointment management - based on the configured schedule of the doctor, an appointment clerk or secretary can book appointments for personnel or their dependents to consult with one or more doctors on the platform.
  • Multi-practice management - This feature allows for one or more administrators to manage a clinic housing multiple practitioners - reducing costs, while increasing the operating efficiencies.  With the administration of the clinic centralized, registration, printing, scheduling can be effectively organized with limited intervention by the medical doctor.  
  • Electronic service orders - Services such as medical examinations, blood investigations, specimen testing and any service that can assist with the doctor’s diagnosis can be ordered electronically via the doctor’s interface.  This is not limited to the services offered by the JDF and can be integrated into external entity’s platform to allow for electronic lab requisitions.  This feature eliminates the generation of paper based records for doctors and administrators and ties directly into lab systems for faster turnaround times for the tests.   All tests are added to the patient electronic medical record (EMR) and is accessible via the PAS-MD platform by doctors.
  • Paper based service requisitions - PAS-MD also supports existing paper-based requisitions.  These requisitions are common across most laboratories.  By selecting the services needed the doctor can print the requisition form and hand it to the patient to access these services.
  • Cross Referral support - Using the PAS-MD platform a doctor can refer patients to any participating doctor or specialist.  This allows remote doctors to send a referral directly to any other participating doctor.
  • AIS PAS referral network  - To further increase the efficiency doctors on the platform can take advantage of the PAS network of practitioners by sending referrals to any doctor using the PAS-MD system electronically.
