Medical professionals with busy practices and patients with busy lives require speed up and simplified health screening process and transactions. Patients will appreciate less forms to fill out at each office visit which will help speed up the process. For physician’s, technology driven patient records and charts will simplify the health screening process. Pooling resources to significantly speed up the process of bringing technologies into clinical practice can help prevent disease through improved screening. Mobile Health Screening Van simply brings the much-needed help to the rural communities, remote locations, schools, retirement homes and even to the corporate world in the busy metropolises at their door steps.
The most fundamental health screening process involves blood pressure, blood glucose, BMI (blood mass index) measurement screening, immunizations, cold and flu season prep, diet and nutrition, vitamins and patient education.
More advanced checkups may include sugar, lipid, liver, kidney, thyroid, HIV, fitness, MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), a Computerized Tomography (CT) scan and educational programs. Some health services and screenings are required by the federal statutes and regulations, as well as pre-employment screenings for specific occupational exposure, complying with OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) requirements.
Biometric screening can provide vital health information in a short duration about risk of diabetes, heart disease, and hypertension. Most of the basic health screening services are already available in homes in some of the major metropolises in India. A certified health professional comes to your home for these basic services. Their monthly service fee even includes all the prescription and over the counter medications delivered to your home. Tests such as MRI will require an office visit. This method of health screening service may be efficient for heavily populated cities with traffic issues but is not compatible with sparsely populated regions. Mobile Health Screening Clinic Van is compatible with rural & remote areas where patients are separated by miles of terrain. Other potentially effective Mobile Health Screening on Wheels sites are:
- Rural and remote communities too small to support fixed Health Screening Clinics
- Inner city school health screening projects
- Nursing Homes
- Retirement communities
Most of the operating overhead for health screening care is fixed: Physicians salary. To speed up and simplify the health screening process, the workflow processes, length of time at a clinic site must be managed to keep the physician with the patient providing health care screening every minute possible. When a physician is travelling, and waiting for the assistant preparations, it can be time consuming and slows down the patient health screening process.
Elizabeth Woodcock, MBA director of Knowledge Management for Physicians Practice Inc. and author of Mastering Patient Flow states that the key to better patient work flow is to develop a deep understanding of your practice’s patient flow process, identify problem areas, develop a concept of your ideal system, and then, through small tests of change, begin moving toward your goal to speed up and simplify patient health screening process. This methodology will equally apply to the conventional fix clinic or the Mobile Health Screening Van.

Medical professionals are an integral part of this digital age which can speed up and simplify patient health screening process by making the required patient information available online to the medical staff. The patient screening data can also be forwarded to other dental professionals for a quick show and tell.
In the John Hopkins medicine report they have identified a culturally sensitive set of tools that are freely available to pediatricians, take less than 10 minutes to use, are in easy to read Spanish, and assess a wide range of emotional and behavioral problems. Many such resources are available in our digital age to speed up and simplify patient health screening process optimally.
