Abstract
Objective: This study aims to explore the efficacy of a smart outpatient service system incorporating the Health Butler application and Intelligent Accompaniment based on patients' feedback.
Methods: A total of 1000 outpatients from Shenzhen Third People's Hospital were randomly selected in May 2023 and November 2023 to provide feedback before and after implementing the smart outpatient service system consisting of the Health Butler app and Intelligent Accompaniment. The changes in the patient's awareness of the medical treatment process, average waiting time, satisfaction with the experience of seeking medical treatment, and trust in medical services offered based on patient feedback were compared pre- and post-implementation.
Results: There were significant differences in outpatients' awareness of the process of medical treatment, average waiting time, satisfaction with the experience of seeking medical care, and trust in medical services before and after the implementation of the smart outpatient service system (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: The smart outpatient service system, which incorporated the Health Butler app and Intelligent accompaniment based on patient feedback, was effective in improving awareness of the process of medical treatment among outpatients, shortening their average waiting time, improving patient satisfaction with the experience of seeking medical care, and also enhancing their trust in medical services.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare (JMDH) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general. The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this. The JMDH is published as an open-access journal to allow this wide range of practical, patient relevant research to be immediately available to practitioners who can access and use it immediately upon publication.
