Appointment Reminders
ChartCaddy is capable of sending appointment reminders to clients via email or text. Text reminders cost two cents each, so they are disabled by default. To enable appointment reminders for your organization send an email to support and let us know which categories of chart items you want to enable them for. Normally only encounters are enabled, but you can also enable reminders for other categories of chart items like plans and assessments as well. Once appointment reminders are enabled for your organization you need to update each client by viewing the client information page for the client and then selecting an option for the Reminder field and click Save. There are various options for email and text.
Please note that after setting up the organization and the client, you still need to enter future encounters into the system.
Clients can reply to text message reminder to confirm or cancel an appointment. In both cases a comment is added to the chart item, and if the client cancels the chart item it is also flagged as Hold to be more visible on the dashboard.
