Stay Up to Date with Real-time Notifications

With Patient Engage Mobile notifications, you receive immediate alerts when patients confirm appointments, submit appointment requests, and send two-way texts. Clicking on notifications can reduce the time needed to respond and complete essential tasks because it takes you directly where you need to go in the app.

Read the Patient Engage Mobile overview topic for more information about the types of notifications you’ll receive.

Use Appointment Requests to Fill Your Schedule

More and more patients prefer self-scheduling and wait-listing to on-the-phone conversations. You can fill openings in your schedule by accepting appointment requests from existing and prospective patients right from your phone.

The Patient Engage Mobile Appointment Request feature allows you to confirm requests from your patients. The app notifies you immediately when someone makes a request, and the patient’s information will be available on your phone. Read this Help topic to learn more about accepting appointment requests.

Search and Filter Weekly Appointments

Did you know that you can search the weekly appointment requests for specific patient names and filter by status, provider names, and appointment date? Only the requests that meet the search criteria will appear in the results list.

Searches and filters are ideal if you are trying to see all the upcoming appointments for a specific provider or if you want to see all the upcoming appointments that still need to be confirmed.
