Questions, answered

Does this report include patient contact details or protected health information?

No. The Slack report contains only internal scheduling data: provider name, appointment type, and slot duration. No patient names or clinical information are included in the auto-posted digest.

Can it distinguish between no-shows and same-day cancellations?

Yes. WebRun reads the appointment status field in Nextech and groups entries separately as No Show or Cancelled so your team can apply different rebooking strategies for each.

Will it contact no-show patients to rebook?

No. This workflow is a read-and-report run only. It posts the internal digest to Slack and never contacts patients directly. Staff handle rebooking outreach after reviewing the report.

Put this on autopilot.
