Workflow

Proactive appointment reminders and patient reactivation for vascular follow-up and surveillance

Vascular patients often miss follow-up imaging, surveillance ultrasounds, or wound checks. Automated reminders and recall outreach keep patients engaged and your schedule full.

Appointment reminders sent 24 hours before consults and post-op follow-ups—via phone call or SMS
AI-powered recall outreach for patients due for surveillance imaging, graft checks, or wound assessment
One-touch rescheduling: patients confirm attendance or request reschedule directly from reminder
Missed appointment callbacks: AI identifies no-shows and queues them for staff follow-up the same day
Recall lists built from your EMR—patients due for annual imaging or periodic surveillance are contacted proactively

How it pays back

Chair Time Protection

Empty chairs cost revenue. Reminders reduce no-shows; proactive recall fills cancellations with surveillance and follow-up visits.

Clinical Continuity

Vascular patients need periodic imaging and assessments. Automated recall ensures no patient falls through the surveillance cracks—critical for graft monitoring and late thrombosis detection.

Patient Safety

Missed follow-ups delay identification of graft failure or disease progression. Reminders and reactivation improve compliance and outcomes.

Staff Time Freed

Automated reminders and recalls eliminate the need for manual phone calling. Staff focus on high-value tasks like scheduling complex cases and resolving cancellations.

Patients due for imaging or surveillance contacted automatically

Frequently asked questions

How often should vascular patients be reminded of appointments?

Standard reminder is 24 hours before. You can customize frequency—some practices send reminders 48 hours before and again at 24 hours. Patients can opt for call or SMS.

Which patients get automated recall outreach?

Your EMR specifies which patients are due for surveillance ultrasound, graft check, or follow-up imaging. The AI pulls that list and calls or texts patients to schedule. You control the recall rules.

What if a patient doesn't respond to the recall call?

The AI can be configured to leave a voicemail or send a follow-up SMS. If the patient still doesn't respond after one or two attempts, the recall is noted and your staff can attempt personal outreach later.

Can patients reschedule directly from the reminder call?

Yes. During the reminder call, the AI can offer available appointment slots. If the patient confirms, the appointment is booked in your EMR. Complex reschedules route to your scheduler.

How do I set up recall rules for different visit types?

You define recall triggers in your practice settings: e.g., 'Post-op wound check at 2 weeks,' 'Annual graft surveillance ultrasound,' 'Claudication follow-up every 6 months.' The AI automatically identifies due patients and initiates recall.
