New and Improved Referral Management System (RMS)

Image01

The Texas Tech Referral Management System (RMS) will be upgraded with a new user interface that will go live on September 30th. RMS staff members in each clinic are scheduled to receive training, starting next week with the Ophthalmology clinic going first. They will be assisting us with testing the changes to the new system.

The new changes will allow staff manage referrals more efficiently, as well as allow clinic administrators to retrieve better data from the system. There are no changes to the system that will affect the provider workflow.

The next phase of the RMS roll-out will include the ability to receive external referrals electronically.

Thank you everyone who attended training on the new module; we were able to meet our deadline of September 30th for DSRIP!
