Home health: Schedule and coordinate home visits

Communicate the right information, at the right time, to the right people, to provide coordinated home care for your patients. Manage home visit schedules, notify patients, and give providers access to medical information, even while on the go. With the Home health app, provider personnel can schedule appointments for the patient based on a variety of factors. Providers can view patient information directly in context, and a guided business process flow ensures that each measure is taken before and after booking the appointment.

Key capabilities of Home health include:

  • Schedule home visit: Enable care coordinators to schedule home visit appointments, while viewing patient information directly in context.

  • Provider scheduling: View schedules of care team members and optimize visiting routes.

  • Home visit coordination: Coordinate care and support distinct processes and tasks for the home visit.

  • Patient notifications Notify patients of arrival times and send follow-up patient satisfaction survey.

Home health extends Microsoft Dynamics 365 Field Service with healthcare-specific capabilities as part of Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare. Learn more about how to use Dynamics 365 Field Service and how to deploy and configure Home health.

The Home health solution within Microsoft Cloud for Healthcare encompasses two apps. The Home health app is specific to the persona who is scheduling the visits. This app offers the ability to create Home health cases and also go through the process of getting home visit appointments scheduled for the patient.
