Patient’s ability to communicate through SMS text messages allows them to send a photo of their insurance card, schedule an appointment, and receive reminders easily before care.
After care, further communication through landline texting allows physicians to conveniently check in with patients, answer outstanding questions, and even requesting feedback or review while adding private notes directly in the text message that only you and other staff can see.
Patients experience an average call of 9 minutes when calling a healthcare provider to make an appointment. Reaching a patient and getting a voicemail or waiting for a call-back slows down the scheduling process even more.
