ChatDoc by Doctaly is the latest digital front door for GP Practices. Patients can WhatsApp into their practice, with a smart ChatBot supporting rapid triage through WhatsApp's interface.
The practice team can then use built-in chat, voice, video, pre-written template messages, automatic translation into 133 languages to quickly resolve patient queries.
Patients who need an appointment can be sent Hero's self-booking links over WhatsApp. Patients receive the self-booking links via WhatsApp, open the link, enter their date of birth to confirm their identity, before selecting a slot. Booking is in unison with the EMIS and Systm1 appointment books.
All relevant clinical information is automatically entered into EMIS or TPP seamlessly. The Doctaly approach can achieve 90% patient adoption of the digital channel, and save huge amounts of precious clinical time.
ChatDoc utilises Hero's patient-led self-booking links, so as to invite patients to find and book an appointment slot at their own convenience, and from within the WhatsApp thread.
