Since the mid-2010s, the term “digital front door” (DFD) has been part of the healthcare lexicon. DFD generally refers to the digital entry point for patients to access services, encompassing tools like online appointment scheduling, telehealth, patient portals, and mobile apps.
But the DFD can be so much more. A well-executed DFD strategy can provide myriad benefits, including:
- Convenience and Efficiency: Digital tools like online scheduling and telehealth reduce the need for in-person visits, saving time for both patients and providers.
- Enhanced Patient Engagement: Patient portals and mobile apps allow individuals to actively manage their health, increasing engagement and adherence to treatment plans.
- Better Communication: Secure messaging and telehealth services facilitate better communication between patients and providers, improving care coordination.
- Cost Savings: A DFD can lower operational costs by reducing the need for physical infrastructure and streamlining administrative tasks.
- Data Access and Sharing: Patients have quicker access to their health information, and providers can more easily share data, leading to more informed decision-making and better outcomes.
- Personalized Care: Digital tools can collect and analyze patient data, enabling personalized treatment plans and proactive care management.
- Increased Patient Satisfaction: The convenience and accessibility of digital tools often lead to higher patient satisfaction and loyalty.
In this webinar industry leaders will share best practices and practical advice. You’ll learn how the DFD can be instrumental in providing patients with seamless, consistent journeys at every digital or in-person touchpoint.
