Be sure to update telehealth consent forms to meet your practice's requirements and applicable laws.

Platform

Appointment Confirmation Messages

Appointment confirmation messages will now be sent to any user with an Office Staff role and the provider associated with the appointment. If a user has the role of Office Staff and Provider, they will receive appointment confirmation messages for all providers in the practice.

To help reduce confirmation messages unrelated to the provider, a system administrator can remove the Office Staff role from the provider's user settings. Once the role is removed, providers will only receive appointment confirmation messages for their patients.

Remove Office Staff Role
  1. Hover over the User icon and click on Practice Settings. The Practice Settings page opens.
  2. Click User Settings. The User Settings page opens.
  3. Click Edit to the right of the provider's name. The Edit Provider page opens.
  4. Click to clear "Office Staff".
  5. Click Save Provider.
