In response to high demand and long processing times, Irwin Army Community Hospital is launching a new appointment-based system to streamline medical records requests and improve service for patients and families.

Irwin Army Community Hospital has rolled out a new program aimed at making it easier for patients to access same-day appointments in our Patient-Centered Medical Homes (PCMH). Each morning at 7:30 a.m., IACH posts the number of same-day appointments available that day on the hospital’s Facebook page, giving patients an opportunity to secure last-minute openings for medical care without needing to go off-post.
This addresses a common challenge faced by many patients — difficulty getting a timely appointment with their provider. Each morning, as the hospital’s day begins, appointment availability is assessed based on the schedules of our providers, which cannot be finalized until the start of the day. By making this information available to patients as soon as possible, IACH aims to improve access to care for the Fort Riley community.This addresses a common challenge faced by many patients — difficulty getting a timely appointment with their provider.
