This article covers how to send a Quick Message to patients
The 'Quick Message' feature allows you to send a text to a single patient with the minimum of clicks.
This feature is ideal for contacting patients when they are not easy to reach by phone, i.e., to notify them that a prescription is ready for collection, or that their test results are available for collection.
