Online Booking
A system that allows patients to schedule appointments directly from a practice's website or booking page without calling the office. Patients see real-time provider availability, select a time slot, and receive instant confirmation. Online booking reduces phone volume and lets patients schedule outside business hours.
Appointment Reminder
An automated SMS or email sent to a patient before their scheduled appointment, typically 24 or 48 hours in advance. Reminders reduce no-show rates by keeping the appointment top of mind and giving patients a chance to confirm or reschedule. Most platforms allow customizable timing and message templates.
