ABSTRACT:
A method and system for managing healthcare delivery is presented. The method includes receiving data related to patients and the patients' scheduled procedures. Based on the data, a queue is generated for screening the patients. The patients are screened in accordance with the screening queue. Once screened, data related to tracking the patients is obtained. The tracking data is used to generate a tracking queue. The patients are tracked in relation to the tracking queue.
