Migraine patients on preventive therapy need regular follow-ups to assess efficacy and adjust treatment. Automated recall campaigns contact patients due for appointments, reducing missed preventive care and improving treatment continuity.

Regular follow-ups ensure migraine patients stay on preventive medications and don't lapse into medication overuse. Continuity of care improves treatment consistency.
Scheduled follow-ups catch patients whose preventive therapy isn't working, so you can adjust treatment before they resort to overuse or emergency care.
Recall automation replaces manual phone campaigns. Staff respond to patients who confirm or need rescheduling—not initiate all the calls.
Automated recall fills your schedule with patients due for preventive follow-up, so clinical time is used efficiently and urgencies don't overrun the schedule.
Automated recall identifies patients due
EHR query pulls migraine patients past preventive follow-up window
Outreach by phone or SMS
Patient confirms, reschedules, or opts out in the recall message
Confirmed appointments and new bookings captured
Appointment details and patient confirmations are structured and returned for staff review and EMR filing
Recall completion and conversion tracked
Dashboard metrics show which patients confirmed, rescheduled, or didn't respond
You set recall rules in your EHR—e.g., 'Any patient with active migraine diagnosis and last visit >3 months ago' or 'Patients on preventive therapy who haven't been seen in 6 months.' The system queries your EHR and generates a recall list.
Yes. You can flag high-risk cohorts—e.g., chronic daily migraines, recent preventive starts, or medication overuse risk. These patients can be recalled first or with different messaging.
The call can capture opt-out preferences and return them as a structured note for staff review. Your clinician can follow up if needed, or the patient is removed from future recall campaigns.
You control the schedule and frequency. Many practices run monthly or quarterly recalls based on their patient panel size and appointment capacity.
Yes. Recall pulls patient lists from your EHR and returns appointment confirmations and new bookings as structured summaries for staff review and filing. It works with athenahealth, eClinicalWorks, Elation, and other major platforms.
