Gather any other information pertinent to visit type such as a Retinal Exam. Discuss special patient needs at huddle if appropriate.

5 Planned Care Visit - Diabetes
Clinical staff obtains appropriate vital signs, and performs any appropriate point of care testing such as A1C, Micro/Alb /Creat, visual foot exam and monofilament. The clinical staff reconciles patient’s medication list, including adding new meds from other providers and refilling meds per medication refill protocol, adding OTC meds and updating medication allergies. If the patient has an elevated blood pressure, clinical staff flags the door with the “blue dot”. Clinical staff reviews Health Maintenance flags and update/order as appropriate following the Standing Orders guidelines. The physician reviews the patient record at the time of the visit to determine future care needs and lab monitoring/frequency needs. The patient is scheduled for the next follow up appointment based on clinical findings.

6 Follow up Care A reminder call is placed 2 days prior to the next visit. So……….what if the patient cancels or no shows?
