A New Staff Communication Tool

At PatientWorks, we understand patient intake and patient self-service. We also know the challenges of patient access and the complexity of patient workflows. Empower your staff with new communication tools. PatientWorks Messenger provides a new level of communication with your patients. Our Messenger solution allows you to communicate with patients via text or email as they move through their pre-registration activities and their arrival for their telehealth or in person visits. Messenger allows staff to send and receive text messages to patients thereby knowing their exact status in the check-in and intake process. If a provider is running late, staff can communicate with the patient and let them know when to come into the facility for their appointment. If it is a telehealth appointment, staff can communicate with the patient on timing and details of the telehealth visit.

Template Messages/Free Form Text

Staff can easily communicate with the patient by text at any time. The messages can be standardized template messages or free form typed text messages responding to a patient's inquiry.
Template messages provide a fast and detailed response to the standard workflows and allow you to be assured the correct responses are being given at each step of the process. Staff can monitor multiple patients messaging at one time through the staff tool.

Staff View of Messages

The Messenger Staff Tool provides staff with a view of all patients in the Care Wizard and those that have received appointment reminders in the Preregistration Queue. Within the application, staff can exchange two-way messages with the patient providing directions, updates, and answering questions. The view can be filtered by service area, provider, etc. Staff sees alert if a patient has sent a text message.
