Automated Dermatology New Patient Intake Forms

When a new patient is added to ModMed with an upcoming appointment, WebRun drafts a personalized text and email with a link to the practice's intake forms, posts the draft to Slack for front-desk review, and stages it for approval before any message is sent to the patient.

In short

How do I automatically send intake forms to new dermatology patients before their appointment?

When a new patient is added to ModMed with an upcoming appointment, WebRun drafts a personalized welcome message via Twilio with a link to the practice's intake forms and posts it to Slack for front-desk approval. Nothing reaches the patient until staff review and approve the draft, ensuring every new patient arrives prepared without unsupervised outreach.

  • Every new patient receives an intake form invitation before their first visit
  • Staff review and approve each message before it is sent
  • Patients who already have forms on file are excluded automatically

Questions, answered

Will it send messages to new patients without staff approval?

No. Every intake invitation is drafted and staged for review. Staff must approve each message before it is sent to the patient.

What if the patient has already submitted intake forms?

WebRun checks ModMed for existing intake forms before staging a message, so patients who have already completed them are excluded.

Can the message include the practice's own intake form link?

Yes. You configure the intake form portal URL in WebRun once and it is included in every draft message automatically.
