Abstract

Efficiency in medical clinics is pivotal for improving patient outcomes and satisfaction. This article provides a critical examination of the development and optimization of patient paths and supporting services within healthcare settings. By delineating the full journey a patient navigates, from initial contact through treatment and follow-up, we identify common bottlenecks in patient flow and service delivery. Additionally, the paper explores the integral role of supporting services, which encompass administrative, logistical, and clinical operations, in enhancing clinic operations. Through a review of current methodologies, case studies, and recent technological advancements, this study highlights effective strategies and innovations that have shown success in streamlining patient care. Moreover, we consider the human factors and regulatory environments that impact the design and implementation of efficient patient paths. This article aims to provide healthcare professionals and clinic administrators with a comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing clinic efficiency and practical recommendations for enhancing patient paths and support services.
