The availability of this feature is dependent on your Weave bundle. Schedule a time with a Weave representative to learn more.
Here is a breakdown of the steps to manage and respond to appointment requests:
- You will receive a pop-up notification and an alert on your
Schedule icon
- Click into the pop-up or into Schedules > Requests
- Click on the
Requests icon at the bottom of
Schedule in either the desktop or mobile app
- From here you can view Pending or Reviewed requests
- Click on a request to view the details
Note: It is very important that you check your management system schedule and if available add the appointment to your management system (for non-integrated customers).
- After you click on the request details, you can choose to Message the patient if the appointment is no longer available or Approve the request
Tip: When you approve a request, a confirmation text will automatically be sent to the patient letting them know their appointment request has been confirmed
- Click on any Pending or Reviewed request to delete after action has been taken
- Click on the
Trash icon to delete the request and remove from your queue in the desktop app.
- Within the home page of the mobile app, select
Schedule
- Tap Requests in the bottom right corner
Tip: Use the tabs at the top of the page to switch between Pending and Reviewed
- Click on a Request to see the details
- Make an action on the request by
- Clicking the Cancel button in the top right corner to dismiss the request
- Select Review
- Select Message Patient to send a text to the patient if you would like to offer different times or get more information
- If you click Review, you'll have to link the patient profile to the request. If the name or numbers do not match up with any patient, you can click Add New to create a new patient profile for the requester
- After opening the patient profile, make sure all the information is correct and fill any fields that may be missing (Date & Time, Chosen Appointment Type, Source, Provider, Workstation, Message)
- Click Approve & Send Message
Once an appointment request has been confirmed, it will be moved to the Reviewed tab.
Clients cannot cancel appointments they submitted within online scheduling without contacting you to remove it from your schedule.
