Cliniq Apps' reminder model will help you reduce your Cancellations and No Shows by automating your "Transactional" communications with your patients from the moment they book until their appointment time.

The model includes 5 pre-appointment actions that can be categorised into 3 groups:

REDUCE CANCELLATIONS ACTIONS

Immediately After Booking
Most patients coming in for re-care have probably already scheduled their appointments 2 months prior.

The first message that will should go out when the appointment is scheduled is an immediate message to remind the patient to add the app to their calendar.

Send your patients an email reminder immediately after booking and make sure to ask them to add it to their calendar.

3 Weeks Prior
It’s is recommended to send a reminder email 3 weeks before the appointment just as a reminder, no confirmation included. This just gives them a heads-up to what has been scheduled and give them the opportunity to double check their calendar and make sure that it’s a good fit in their schedule.

REDUCE LATE-CANCELLATIONS ACTIONS

7 Days Prior
Then send a message as a confirmation reminder 7 days before  the appointment so there is still time to call if the patient didn’t confirm electronically.
