Replace manual work with intelligent automation that runs 24/7.
Patient Self-Scheduling

Smart Appointment Reminders
Automated multi-touch reminders via text and email reduce no-shows. Patients confirm or reschedule with one tap, keeping the schedule accurate and maximizing provider time.
Referral Follow-Up Automation
When a referral is created, the referred patient automatically receives outreach with scheduling instructions and a booking link, closing the loop that typically loses 40% of referrals.
Schedule Change Notifications

Medical Practices Automation FAQ
Can patients book only certain appointment types online?
Yes. You control which visit types are available for self-scheduling. Routine follow-ups and annual physicals can be self-scheduled while complex visits requiring pre-authorization remain staff-scheduled.
Does it integrate with our EHR system?
SchedulingKit provides REST API and webhook integrations that can connect to major EHR platforms. Appointment data syncs automatically to keep patient records current across systems.
How does the system handle emergency schedule changes?
When a provider's availability changes, the system immediately identifies all affected appointments and sends batch notifications. Patients can reschedule themselves or request a callback from staff.
Can we collect copays at the time of booking?
Yes. Payment collection at booking can be configured per appointment type. Collect copays, deposits, or full payment upfront to reduce front desk workload and no-shows.
