REGISTRATION MENU OPTIONS
Voice Recorder
This option allows the recording of patient names for use with Intellect's CallSTAFF Automated Appointment Reminder program. For information on this feature and necessary equipment, refer to CallSTAFF Automated Hardware Requirements.
Note: Patient names cannot be recorded if the system has Windows 2007 or Vista.
CallSTAFF Automated Appointment Reminder has three recorded messages to select from. If the office selects a recorded message that does not include the patient's name, it is not necessary to use the Voice Recorder.
Voice Recorder Set Up
NOTE: Before recording, recordersetup.bat must be run. It is located in home/staff/app and is a batch file which sets up the recorder so the recordings are saved in the correct format. Simply click the icon to run the program.
1. To record audio for names for Intellect's CallSTAFF, go to Registration --►Voice Recorder
The Patient's Name Voice Recorder screen displays:
2. Enter a date range of appointments to search for scheduled names.
Remember that if patients will be called for two dates prior to when names will again be recorded, the entire date range should be entered. For example, if Monday appointments are called on Saturday, and Tuesday appointments are called on Monday, both dates need to have their names recorded on Friday. Names should be recorded daily to ensure that reminder messages are not missing patient names.
3. Name
Intellect returns all scheduled patient names as Last and First for any scheduled patient whose name has not been previously recorded. Names are not repeated.
First and Last names are treated as separate items, appearing on different lines.
Once a name has been recorded and saved to the server, it does not appear on this list again.
Example: Bob Smith, Tom Smith, and Edward Smith would create one entry for 'Smith' and three different entries for the first names. If later a Betty Smith were scheduled, only the name 'Betty' would appear on the list.
