Abstract

Background:
Efficient appointment management is crucial in daycare units for eating disorders, where multidisciplinary teams coordinate various therapeutic sessions.

Objectives:
Establishing FHIR appointment management enhances scheduling efficiency, ensuring seamless communication between healthcare providers while enabling real-time updates for rescheduling and cancellations.

Methods:
By integrating FHIR appointment management in a digital health solution, the system supports comprehensive tracking of a client’s treatment journey and allows for real-time scheduling an adapting in daycare for both the care team and the clients.

Results:
A mobile phone app and data management system approach was implemented and piloted in a daycare for eating disorders. Additionally, an information system success model survey was conducted to discover further improvement potential.

Conclusion:
FHIR appointment management enhances the existing telehealth platform while actively incorporating clients in their therapy and guaranteeing efficient program operation in daycare.
