How to Use the Waitlist

This article will explain how the appointment waitlist is used, how to add and remove patients from the waitlist, and how to transfer a wait-listed patient into a free or canceled appointment slot. 

In MediRecords, patients can be added to the wait list from a current appointment. As a result, each patient wishing to join the waitlist must have an appointment in the appointments calendar to be visible on the Wait-List.

To access the waitlist, create or open an appointment and click Wait List.

Each appointment added to the wait list will be visible.

To add a patient to the Waitlist

1. Click the Tick-Box next to Join Wait-list in an existing or new appointment
2. Click Save

To book a wait-list patient into an existing appointment:

1. Open the existing appointment
2. Click Wait List
3. Select the Patient wait-listed
4. Click Save
5. The original appointment for the wait-listed patient will overwrite the existing appointment.

To remove a patient from the Wait-List without moving the appointment:

1. Open the patient's appointment
2. Deselect the Tick-Box next to Join Wait-List
3. Click Save
