What does this Questionnaire do?
The Accurx Day Case Procedure Follow Up Questionnaire allows the sending of an online questionnaire to patients to collect information about how a patient is recovering following discharge home after a procedure. It can be used to identify patients who require more detailed assessment and ensure patients are appropriately managed after discharge.
The questionnaire link is sent via SMS or email. The patient fills in the questionnaire through a browser so can use their phone, tablet, laptop or desktop to complete it.
Patients have 10 hours from when they receive the questionnaire to complete it.
The responses are returned to the user or organisation via the Accurx Web inbox. The responses can be assigned to other colleagues.
