How an appointment booking app can help you increase your efficiency

Goodbye to 2021, a year that most of us are pleased to be through with, and hello to 2022. It's a new year, which means it's time to make resolutions. Yes, there are the expected goals: lose weight, increase exercise, break bad habits, gain new skills... Another self-promise that enters the top ten list is to becoming more organised, and this is where this appointment scheduling tool might come in handy.

Back when we had to scribble down birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and anything else we knew about ahead of time, we had to write it all down. Then, by February, it would usually be sitting on our desks, silently waiting to be filled, or rather unfilled, with appointments, task lists, and other key dates for the remainder of the year. Of course, life has altered in recent years. Aside from essentially everything being on the internet, many of us work remotely, which necessitates virtual collaboration with our coworkers. It's more difficult than ever to keep track of who, what, and where we do our daily activities.

Atereo Appointment Booking is a new smartphone app that helps organisations like NHS Trusts save money on patient appointment scheduling. It started from the requirement that the business had. Every year, NHS Trusts spend millions of pounds mailing appointment letters and SMS text messages to patients, not to mention the staff time spent on antiquated procedures.

With Atereo in picture, Contact centre personnel can use the Appointment Booking app to securely deliver appointment details to patients without incurring the costs of mail or SMS text messages, or relying on patients accessing the portals directly.

The Online Booking System by Atereo keeps a detailed record of when messages were sent, opened, and replied to. If a patient has many appointments, you can send them all in one message. If a clinic needs to be cancelled, patients can quickly receive cancellation notices. Atereo Appointment Booking can offer an appointment to other patients if it becomes available, even if it is at a later stage.

Patients can also use the Atereo Appointment Booking app to confirm or reschedule their appointments quickly and simply. What’s more, this scheduling application can be integrated with your existing patient management system, allowing for automated message generation and delivery.

All messages sent, opened, and responded to are tracked systematically in the Atereo Appointment Booking. In addition, to ensure that all information is securely kept and communicated, the app also employs signed certificates and strong encryption. Another key point is that the app is supported on both the iOS and Android ecosystems.
