The forms are still scanned into the system were later the HIM department will review and obtain any information for billing purposes. This technology has changed the work place to a greater aspect. With everything going electronic, more doctors are able to stay in their own facilities or offices without having to leave to see a patient. Confidential information is sent to the Physicians by an email link that can only be opened by the physician.
In my knowledge from class discussion and note taking however, some of the clerical or administrative roles of a hospital unit clerk include client registration, scheduling, billing, health card verification and more.

In any hospital unit, unit clerks play a vital role as the central point for incoming and outgoing communication.

Unit 347 – Using Email Our main method of communication at First B2B is emailing.
