How to Keep Ophthalmology Staff On Time and On Track

Jul 07, 2023

If time is money, as the old saying goes, tracking your team is likely having a major effect on your practice’s bottom line.


Documenting every scheduling variable throughout the workweek can be difficult for ophthalmology practices. In fact, if you’re not careful, that process can end up costing more time, money, and energy than some of the original tasks you’re tracking. 

Fortunately, IMS’s Electronic Medical Office (EMO) system has invented the perfect solution: Time Clock.


Time Clock is a seamless scheduling module that helps your team clock in and out, monitor activity, and take breaks straight from your EHR. Here’s why your team should upgrade now.

Increase Your Practice Efficiency With IMS Time Clock

When your ophthalmology office needs a better way to ensure schedule adherence, there’s no better solution than Time Clock.

Time Clock has all the latest, easy-to-use tools for handling staff scheduling, including:

Comprehensive Clock-In/Out Tracking

Like any business, an ophthalmology office needs to keep track of employee time to calculate payroll and monitor attendance. However, basic manual timekeeping methods are prone to errors and can be subject to time theft. That is why an ophthalmology office can benefit from software that tracks when employees clock in and out. 


With an accurate tracking system in place, employers can better ensure that employees are getting paid for the time they work while reducing payroll errors and cutting down on time fraud. Additionally, Time Clock offers managers real-time insights into employee schedules, which allows them to make more informed staffing decisions. Ultimately, investing in the right scheduling software can prove to be a wise and cost-effective decision.

Automated Reminders

In the fast-paced world of ophthalmology, time is of the essence, and every minute counts. That is why automated reminders for taking breaks are necessary for ophthalmology offices. Not only does Time Clock ensure compliance with labor laws, but it also helps track employee hours and reduce the risk of burnout.


As you know, ophthalmology providers face high stress levels and long hours, which can take a toll on their health. Automated reminders for breaks allow professionals to take a moment to recharge, refresh their minds, and return to work with renewed energy. By streamlining office operations and promoting a healthier work environment with Time Clock, you’ll improve patient care and employee satisfaction.
