Ensure that patients receive the most appropriate care based on prerequisites such as
their age and medical history. Build a prerequisite check flow that determines a patient's
eligibility for a visit type, and then link your flow to a visit type. A prerequisites check in
the scheduling workflow alerts schedulers and can prevent them from booking appointments if the
patient doesn’t meet the required criteria.
