ESSENTIALS PLAN - SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS
Last updated 13 October 2020
This license grants you access to a patient communications platform to manage post-treatment communications in a scalable manner and identify patients in need (Post-Treatment Monitoring) and generate patient feedback both privately (NPS) and publicly (Online Reviews).
Communications and screening questions are not customisable, though multiple templates are available and selectable from the app. Current versions can be found in the Patient Communications section.
Patient Information and Visits can be manually entered into the FollowApp platform, except for the Integrated version of the platform with selected PMS providers (ie. automation of patient, doctor and procedure import).
Post-Treatment Monitoring enables the clinician to provide quality postoperative care for patients and better triage to minimize complications during recovery. The goal is to increase customer retention and new customer acquisition through higher customer satisfaction. It includes the following functionalities:
- Automated and personalised SMS/email linking to health checks for post-treatment follow up of patients.
- Health checks are automatically sent out on specific intervals according to the procedure (i.e. Surgical Extraction – Days 1,2, and 4)
- Health checks collect information such as: pain scores, pain relievers taken, discomfort, etc.
- Automated Net Promoter Score (NPS) collection at the end of the patient’s aftercare journey with your clinic (i.e. How likely is it that you would recommend Dr ______ to a friend or colleague?)
- Patients are sent an NPS survey following aftercare procedures for internal feedback
- Promoters are offered a link to your clinics Google Reviews page for public feedback.
The set of messages sent to patients as part of Post-Treatment Monitoring have been defined in accordance with existing medical protocols and customers’ feedback. These questions may be revised. The latest available version can be found in the Patient Communications section.
