Surgery and theatre
One booking. Every promise it makes, tracked.
The secretary books the surgery once. Microdoc books theatre, then records the hospital form, pre-admission request, admission letter, and post-op review as steps the team can see.
Book a demoStaff stay in charge
Staff review what booking will do before it happens. If an outcome is unclear, Microdoc does not repeat the step. A person checks it.
From the decision to operate to the post-op review.
Booking takes two steps at the desk. Everything after it stays visible on the surgery's own page.
1
Start from wherever the decision was made
The same booking opens from the consultation, the patient's chart, a report, or the calendar, and stays on the page you were using.
- Procedures, hospital, date, times, and side
- Save for later as a surgery still to book
- Surgeries from your practice system appear on the list without opening the chart
2
See what booking will do
Before anything is sent, the review step shows the theatre position, payer, fees, documents, and who each one goes to.
- Payer read live from the practice system
- Saved fees for this hospital and procedure set
- A pre-admission suggestion, which staff can change
- The first free post-op slot in the practice's window
3
Book theatre first
Theatre is booked straight away. If it is refused, nothing else goes out, and the other steps wait until theatre holds the surgery.
- Any day and time can be chosen
- Diary and working hours are context, not a block
- An uncertain theatre result shows as “Check theatre booking”
4
Send the paperwork in order
The post-op review is booked first, so the admission letter can print it. Each document is a recorded step with its own retry.
- The hospital's own booking form, prefilled and editable
- Letters and recipients set by procedure
- Booklets and tests set by procedure
- A self-pay quote with its pay-by date
5
Handle pre-admission
Decide whether the patient needs a pre-admission clinic, request it, and record the date when the hospital gives one.
- Documents waiting on the date go once it is entered
- A later date change offers to send them again
- A recent assessment is shown as a hint
6
Change or cancel in one place
A date, hospital, or procedure change is one action. Microdoc works out what is affected and shows it before you confirm.
- Steps still waiting are replaced by the new version
- Sent documents can be sent again
- Earlier versions stay on record
Set up once, for how your practice really works.
- A list that says what is next
- Each surgery shows To book, Booked, Ready, Cancelled, or Done with its next step. Problems collect under Needs you.
- Hospital defaults
- Hospitals can share a booking form, and staff can choose a different form for one surgery when they need to.
- Defaults by procedure
- An angiogram and a TAVI can each have their own admission letter, and their forms can go to different people.
- Theatre on the calendar
- The theatre entry in the diary shows the surgery's status and next step, so the secretary need not open another screen.
