Managing Text Messages for Multiple Locations

With text messaging enabled in NextPatient, it is important to monitor the incoming messages from patients to remain responsive. If your office does not publicize your text message number to clients, typical responses from patients may include: feedback about their appointment, questions about check in protocols, wrong number notifications, and more. If you offices does publicize your text message number, then the responses can vary to anything from request for information like pricing and availability, post operative help, and much more. In either case, it is important to monitor the Texting inbox.
