What process should be followed if a patient has been seen within the last 2 months?

The process referred to as a "60 day flip" is specifically designed for patients who have had an encounter within the last 60 days. This process streamlines the registration workflow by allowing staff to quickly access prior information, which can significantly reduce the time needed for new registration procedures. Since the patients have already been seen relatively recently, their medical and demographic data may have already been collected and verified. Therefore, the "60 day flip" allows for quick retrieval and updating of this existing information rather than starting the registration process from scratch.

In this context, the other options do not specifically address the needs of a patient seen in the last 2 months effectively. Pre-registration is generally used for scheduling future appointments rather than revisiting recent patients. Express registration is normally for walk-in patients needing fast processing but does not account for recent history. Standard registration involves a complete and thorough process, which is not necessary for someone who has recently been seen, hence making it less efficient than the 60 day flip.
