sending SMS to doctors

Sending SMS Doctor is a relevant use of SMS communication for the medical sector (GP, nurse, Dentist, midwife, therapist, orthodontist, osteopath, etc). In the service of the patient, several applications are widely answered: the appointment reminder from the diary held by the medical secretary or the sending of medical SMS alert throughout the course of care (automated and without human intervention) in order to Remind the patient to take a medication, a treatment protocol, etc.

Sending medical SMS is probably the easiest solution to put in place for any medical practice. And this preventive approach proves to be effective! In fact, the absenteeism of patients at their medical appointments hinders 94% of doctors and health professionals. In the Face of this observation, sending SMS doctor allows both to recall a consultation appointment, to inform of a possible delay or cancellation of appointment or to allow the patient to cancel his appointment in case of unexpected or impossibility.

What benefits to sending Doctor SMS?

Sending Doctor SMS

  • An appointment reminder via an ultra simple SMS: you send your patient an SMS a few hours before their consultation, specifying the name of the practitioner, the date and time of the appointment as well as the number to contact in case of withdrawal. Your patient will read this message as soon as he/she is available without you having to contact him/her again!
  • Easier medical secretarial work: with the use of an appointment scheduling software with which we have established a partnership (see below), the appointment reminder is sent automatically and without any manipulation at the time(s) defined when the appointment is made (e.g. 48 or 72 hours before the consultation).
  • A confirmation request option by return SMS can be activated: your patient is invited to confirm their presence as they are asked to send you a reply SMS which you will receive directly in your SMS customer account. Last minute appointment changes and cancellations will be easier to deal with and you can free up consultation slots and allocate them to more urgent medical pathology appointments.
  • Advanced applications for the health sector: an SMS message can be used to send the patient a protocol to be followed before an operation or consultation (fasting, taking medication, bringing back X-rays, etc.) or a reminder to follow up on a treatment (vaccination, taking medication or consultation at regular intervals) directly to his or her mobile phone in real time.
