title: Cashing in on check-in. As hospitals face steeper challenges in collecting fees for service, bringing the revenue cycle to the kiosk may be an answer.
abstract: Kiosks are expected to become more interactive in terms of the revenue cycle. Consent forms and way-finding are the more traditional uses of kiosks. The emergency room is an ideal place to use kiosk or tablet technology because of the long waits. Using tablets before a full kiosk implementation is a sound strategy.
