01 — FRONT DESK
The queue runs itself.
Appointments, walk-ins and emergencies share one day without colliding — and the board on the wall stays right without anyone maintaining it.
Appointments & scheduling
- Three token series — Prior, Walk-in, Emergency — derived from real slots, never colliding.
- Server-allocated walk-in slots fill the actual next gap in the day.
- Calling order reflects the room: emergencies, due bookings, then walk-ins.
- “Arrived late” re-slots in one click without burning a reschedule.
- A visit isn’t closed until it’s paid — the balance stays visible at the desk.
Waiting room & token display
- Pair a TV in seconds — claim a code from the dashboard, no daily PINs.
- Survives power cuts; any screen can be revoked instantly.
- “Now serving” large, “next” clear, doctors carousel through the board.
