About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether an electronic patient-reported outcome measure (ePROM)-guided flexible scheduling system can improve outpatient clinic resource utilisation in patients attending dermatology outpatient clinics for routine follow-up. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Does the intervention reduce the number of actualised outpatient visits over 12 months compared with standard fixed scheduling? * Does the intervention group achieve higher adherence to monthly ePROM monitoring, as measured by the proportion of completed ePROM submissions?
