Intelligent Patient Engagement

Mass patient notifications for office closures and mass reschedules are just a small piece of what we do.

Washington, D.C. (PRWEB) December 11, 2013

Tuesday December 10, 2013, in response to the winter storm causing school and office closures in Washington D.C., Patient Prompt sent automated text, voice calls and email reminders to the patients of their D.C. based clients to inform them of office closures. Patients were saved the hassle of calling the office themselves or worse yet, fighting the dangerous conditions of the winter storm only to arrive to an office or hospital that is closed.

On Tuesday, D.C. based Patient Prompt clients were able to send inclement weather mass patient notifications with a simple online request or with a quick phone call to Patient Prompt’s 24 hour customer support line. Message delivery is easily triggered and tracked through the online patient engagement management system eliminating the scramble of trying to manually reach out to all patients in a timely fashion, and gives healthcare organizations the piece-of-mind that all patients have been informed of the schedule change.
