Add the ability to send Mass Text Messages to patients (Also individual text messages)
Send out a Mass Text to patients.
This would be helpful to keep the schedule full throughout the day. We could use this feature to send out to patients as soon as we have a cancelation and or an opening in the schedule.
Ex: " we have an opening today to see Dr. at . If you are interested please call asap to schedule.
We are a pediatric office so it would be nice to put Your child is due to see Dr. We have an opening today at . To insure this appointment time please call asap to schedule.
Individual text messages would be nice too.
We need this now for enhanced communication with our patients during the pandemic!

It would be great to be able to text a patient at any time without having to create a dummy appointment. It's inconvenient. Would be nice if there was an option to text them right from the family file!

Additionally - we have many patients who would like us to send them a text message the day before or morning of their appointment. We want a way to manually send an individual text message appointment reminder at will.

It would be helpful to add to the mass text : "The first family/patient to call the office will secure the appointment."

It would be nice to do instant messages to any patient of record with a mobile phone at anytime rather than just automated. Like when we send texts from our own phones. That way you could send a text to an individual like a personal test message.

We think that if we had the option to text patients that do not have scheduled appointments, it would be beneficial to our office. A lot of people can text on their phone at work, but cannot answer a phone call.

It would be very helpful if we could communicate by text with patients without appointments or appointments schedule further out than two weeks. We want to primarily use this to contact patients to fill openings in our schedule.

Texting is our most successful way to immediately communicate with our patients. If a patient does not have a scheduled appointment, a text message cannot be sent. Consequently, a fake appointment has to be scheduled to send a text, which results in a confirmation text and an annoyed patient who calls to say he doesn't have an appointment. Demandforce had this feature. I miss it a lot. I am sorry that I left them for Dentrix. It was a step BACKWARDS!

Add a text/email reminder to the eCentral Correspondence Campaigns for patients who have a premed alert and need a reminder before the appointment.

COMMUNICATIONS MANAGER! Please add a DATE RANGE parameter so that we can send BLAST e-mails/texts i.e. 'Inclement Weather--need to close office TODAY!' We would like to be able to notify ALL patients on a certain day if office has to close!
