Patients can access these tools using their mobile devices to communicate with their health providers in over 20 languages.

Using the technologies, patients can interact with staff, complete pre-visit intake forms, submit documents, and confirm or cancel appointments.

For customers of NextGen Healthcare, they will be able to carry out surveys, send appointment reminders, offer new service lines, as well invite patients to join the ‘smart’ waitlist for quick appointments in tune with their current appointment type.
