Outcome
Fresno practices confirm appointments via SMS and voice reminders, then use AI callbacks to catch patients who might not show up.
Instead of finding an empty chair, your staff gets a heads-up. If a patient hasn't confirmed by 2 hours before, the AI reaches out. You have time to offer the slot to a waitlist patient or adjust the provider's schedule.
Confirmation data (confirmed, no response, cancelled) is captured and returned as a structured summary. Your clinicians can review and file it when the patient checks in, so they know who confirmed and who didn't.
The AI can leave a natural, personalized voicemail or text reminder. Patients recognize it's from your practice and are more likely to confirm or cancel (giving you time to fill the slot).
The moment a patient cancels or doesn't confirm, the AI calls the next person on your waitlist to fill the slot. No empty chairs, no wasted provider time.

The AI sends SMS text messages and can leave voicemail reminders automatically. You choose the timing—typically 24 hours before and 2 hours before the appointment. The message includes the appointment details, location, and a link or number to confirm or reschedule.
If a patient doesn't confirm by the reminder deadline, the AI can attempt a callback to verify they're still coming or to reschedule. Your practice sets the rules—some prefer to hold the slot, others prefer to proactively reach out.
Confirmation status (confirmed, no response, cancelled) is captured and returned as a structured summary. Your clinical staff can review and file it when the patient checks in, so they know who confirmed and who didn't.
