Why does GReminders work well for Medical Practices?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent study Healthcare Innovation<\/a> pegs missed appointments at $150 Billion Dollars per year! That’s 150 with a B.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That is a staggering number. For healthcare, many no show rates are as high as 30% in some areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GReminders is a type of patient reminder software. To maximize your billings and capacity you want to make it simple for customers to engage with you. The best practice is to remind your patients of an appointment that has been scheduled, send them a couple of reminders prior to the appointment, and then send a follow up to be sure to scheduled their next appointment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SMS reminders can be used for many different types of medical practices. It can be used for doctors appointment reminders, medical testing reminder text messages, physical therapy reminders, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Texting is the simplest asynchronous way to communicate with your customers. Automated patient reminders have an extremely high engagement and response rate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

GReminders handles scheduling, appointment reminders and follow ups with ease. Leverage your existing Calendar and let the background service do all the work. We are also HIPAA Compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our most common plan costs $12\/month. A SINGLE appointment saved will typically pay for 1 year of the GReminder service! Stop wasting your precious time, and eliminate no shows or cancellations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You connect your existing Google Calendar to GReminders, set a template, and text reminders will automatically be sent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can even set up appointment scheduling<\/a>, which allows your clients to book meetings automatically on your calendar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or send follow up notifications to remind them to book their next appointment OR ask them to post a review on Yelp, Facebook or similar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GReminders is a great choice for patient appointment reminders<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is real feed from Medical Practices that use GReminders:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have a lengthy waitlist for my practice. No Show Patients waste my time and money, while another patient remains on that waiting list. Since we signed up with GReminders, our problem has been solved.<\/p>– Dr. Smith – Cardiologist
Miami, FL
<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Using GReminders to send SMS text reminders to my patients has cut my no show appointments by around 15%.<\/p>– Dr. Goldberg – Endocrinologist
New York, NY<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Our physical therapy practice is quite busy. GReminders allows us to free up our receptionists time. Instead of her calling every patient (some are seen 3 days a week), we just use GReminders to do the reminding. Fabulous service!<\/p>– Joseph Frye, Physical Therapist
Santa Ana, CA<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
