This preparation guide helps practices assess their current approach to patient access before participating in an EPT learning session. It supports teams in reviewing access-related workflows and performance, identifying operational barriers, and gathering information needed for discussion and improvement planning. Topics may include appointment availability, scheduling processes, third next available appointment, continuity, patient demand, staffing, and opportunities to improve timely access to care. Practices can use the guide to align their teams, identify priority questions, and prepare to apply learning-session content within their own operations.
