Abstract
Access to pediatric neurology care is limited, and outpatient waits can exceed 6 months. The referral process is often complex and burdensome. Our objective was to trial a program for scheduling access to pediatric neurology, to be controlled and accessed directly by outside providers. We developed a web-based automated system, "Rapid Access Scheduler" (RASr), for direct scheduling by outside providers. RASr is built around a calendar view that allows the provider to see and reserve an available slot at the time of care. Once a slot is reserved, the scheduling team contacts the family to finalize scheduling. The RASr system is a novel approach for facilitating pediatric neurology patient access through direct scheduling by outside providers using a web-based portal. Advantages of this include control and responsibility by outside providers, easy visibility of availability, and opportunity to inform patients and families at their point-of-care.
