Questions, answered

Will it send reminder messages to patients on its own?

No. Every message is drafted in Gmail and held unsent until a staff member reviews and approves it. No patient communication leaves the practice without human sign-off.

Which patients does it include in the recall list?

It pulls anyone whose recall or post-op follow-up date falls within the next 14 days in DSN Software, so the list covers upcoming due dates rather than already-overdue patients.

How do we track who was contacted?

Each patient processed is appended to a Google Sheet with their name, recall type, due date, and draft status, giving the front desk a running log of every outreach batch.
