About This Automation

Pre-appointment prep requires confirming insurance, collecting signed forms, and gathering referral records before every visit. Handling this by phone, email, and spreadsheet across several staff members creates delays and last-minute scrambles.

An automated version checks eligibility, sends forms the moment a patient is cleared, and chases missing signatures without staff intervention. Referral records, form status, and patient readiness are compiled and shared with clinical staff automatically before the visit.

Key features
Flags patients needing insurance verification as soon as the next-day schedule loads
Sends intake, history, and consent forms automatically once eligibility clears
Follows up on unsigned forms without manual phone calls or texts
Requests referral records and imaging from outside providers automatically
Compiles a complete prep packet per patient in one place
Notifies clinical staff of prep-ready status and files signed forms to the patient record

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. New Appointment Addedtrigger

A confirmed booking on the calendar starts the pre-appointment prep sequence automatically.

2. Eligibility Prep Pulls Next-Day List

The automation scans upcoming appointments and flags which patients need insurance confirmation.

3. Staff Verifies Insurance By Phone

Flagged complex cases route to a staff member to confirm coverage directly with the payer.

4. Forms & Signature Sends And Tracks Forms

Intake, history, and consent forms go out automatically and unsigned forms trigger an SMS reminder.

5. Records & Handoff Compiles And Notifies

The automation pulls referral records, assembles the prep packet, and posts a ready or missing flag to staff.

6. File Completed Forms

The finished prep packet is saved to the patient's shared folder ahead of the visit.
