Patient check-in is the process where patients check-in to begin their registration with the healthcare facility topically using a clipboard, electronic tablet, touch screen, kiosk, or some other method, sometimes self-service. Patient check in started as far back as the Roman times when patients would wait for special services in purpose-built hospitals. Romans were the first to have hospitals with doctors assigned to consult and observe patients. Prior to the Romans, many cultures such as the Greeks relied on temples and the Gods to cure through supernatural forces. As patient services were made more available, so was the need to have some method of tracking patients as they arrived.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=What Is Ancient Roman Medicine? )〕 ==History== For many years and still to this day, patient check in and registration was done primarily through paper, clipboard, and pencil. Then, on August 21, 1996, President Clinton signed into law HIPAA, which included a Privacy Rule designed to protect patient’s privacy. The privacy rule took effect on April 14, 2003, changing the way hospitals, doctor’s offices, outpatient ambulatory care centers, clinics, and surgery centers thought about collecting, sharing, and knowingly exposing Protected Health Information (PHI). In addition, computers started to evolve making it more affordable for institutions to purchase the necessary hardware for an electronic check-in system replacing traditional paper sign-in sheets. In later years, tablets and touch screen devices continued to increase in functionality and accessories while becoming more readily available and affordable.
