Automated Patient Transfers

From manual input to a human-free digital process.

Situation

The referral process was fully manual: data was extracted from the patient software, copied into Excel, and then entered one by one into the referral system, creating high operational workload and error risk.

Work Done

We developed an automated bot that downloads the report, extracts the relevant data, transforms it, and once validated, uploads it to the referral system. The entire process features full traceability and log-based monitoring.

Result

Manual input was completely eliminated, reducing human error and significantly improving operational efficiency. Estimated monthly savings: 2744 minutes and 312 USD.

Project Phases

These were the stages we followed to automate the process.

Problem Identification

We detected the operational bottleneck in the referral data entry process.

Solution Design

We designed an automation architecture without human intervention.

Bot Development

We programmed the Python script to connect data, validate information, and run the full process.

Implementation and Traceability

The automated process was launched, with logs and error control.

Key Benefits

Fewer Manual Tasks

The process is now 100% automated, freeing staff from repetitive tasks.

Fewer Errors

Automatic validation and logs minimize the risk of human error.

Improved Traceability

Each step is logged, allowing auditability and process improvement.

Estimated Monthly Savings

2744 min

Operational Time

USD 312

Avoided Cost

This saving recurs monthly thanks to the full automation of the process.
