Annual Insurance Maximum Expiry Campaigns

Q: Do we still need staff involved in the outreach?

Front desk staff still make personal calls to high value patients who have not responded, while list building and messaging run on their own.

Q: Will this work with the tools our practice already uses?

The automation is designed to connect with common spreadsheet, email marketing, and patient relationship tools already in place.

Q: What happens to our existing patient and benefit data?

Existing patient and benefit records serve as the source of truth, so nothing needs to be re-entered or migrated.

Q: How are patients who do not respond handled?

Non responders are flagged automatically so follow up calls can focus on the patients with the most unused benefit.

About This Automation

Dental practices track patients with unused insurance benefits before those dollars expire at year end. Coordinating outreach across email, phone, and text by hand pulls staff from patient care and often causes inconsistent follow up.

The automated version pulls current benefit data, builds a prioritized outreach list, and launches campaign messaging without manual list building. It then flags non responders so follow up calls focus on the highest value patients.

Key features:

Pulls current insurance benefit balances directly from patient records

Segments patients by remaining benefit amount and visit recency

Drafts and schedules email and text reminders automatically

Flags non responders for targeted follow up calls

Logs outreach outcomes and booking results automatically

Generates a campaign performance summary at the end of each cycle
