Self-Scheduling: Why it’s A Game-Changer for Doctor’s Appointments

April 8, 2024Filed Under: General Tagged With: appointment, schedule an appointment, Texas Orthopedics

 

In today’s fast-paced world, time is a valuable commodity, and waiting on hold to schedule a doctor’s appointment can feel like an unnecessary hassle. Fortunately, advancements in technology have made self-scheduling a reality, offering patients the ability to streamline their healthcare experience. Let’s look at just a few of the reasons why self-scheduling is a game-changer.

Skipping the Line

No one enjoys waiting in line or on hold just to schedule an appointment. At Texas Orthopedics we receive between 800-1300 calls a day with Monday being the highest volume day. With the flexibility of self-scheduling, now you can book your appointment quickly, saving valuable time and avoiding frustration.

Scheduling Outside Business Hours

Traditional appointment scheduling often requires coordinating with the clinic’s operating hours. This can tend to conflict with your own personal or work schedule, especially if you don’t know how long you may be on hold until the next representative is available to help. Self-scheduling allows you to book an appointment at your convenience or even right after an injury may have occurred.

Picking the Right Provider

While it is true that our scheduling staff can help you pick the correct provider, with self-scheduling the power is in your hands to see all of the provider’s availability. Our self-scheduling platform provides detailed information about our providers, including their specialties, education, and locations. This allows you to take your time researching and selecting the provider that best suits your needs, without feeling rushed. You also have real-time access to their available time slots to choose the date and time that works best for you.

Automatic Confirmation

Once you have booked your appointment, through our self-scheduling platform, you will receive an instant appointment confirmation. This eliminates the uncertainty of whether the appointment was successfully scheduled and provides you with the peace of mind knowing that your appointment is confirmed.

The convenience and efficiency of self-scheduling through our platform will not only benefit you but also our providers and staff. By reducing the number of calls received, our providers and staff can allocate resources more effectively, improve patient satisfaction and enhance overall efficiency.

Self-scheduling has modernized the way patients book their doctor’s appointments by offering the benefit of saving time, reducing stress, and improving the overall healthcare experience. By using the power of technology, you can now take control of your healthcare journey with ease.
