Why do doctors need appointment scheduling software?

Dealing with concerned or vulnerable patients is taxing enough. When you add the burden of manually scheduling appointments, your day becomes even more demanding. If your patients face any of the following challenges when booking a doctor's appointment, your clinic needs a better scheduling system:

  • Delays in providing timely care to your patients
  • Consultations spaced too far apart—or crammed back-to-back
  • Long patient queues putting more pressure on your staff
  • Appointment requests scattered across platforms

01

Multi-location support

Managing multiple clinics in various places? Add them all to your Zoho Bookings account. Categorize different services, assign doctors, and set prices; then, share or embed pages for each location. You can view and maintain patient details, schedules, payments, and more across locations.

02

Centralized appointment dashboard

Access all your booked appointments from a central calendar dashboard, view your past and upcoming visits, and stay ahead of your schedule. You can also sync your calendar apps (like Google and Outlook) and update your calendar with all your appointments.

03

Virtual consultations

Do you meet with patients online? Zoho Bookings integrates with online video conferencing apps like Zoom, Google Meet, MS Teams, and Zoho Meeting to automatically provide meeting links via email as soon as a consultation is booked.

04

Comprehensive analysis

Create thorough reports of your patient appointments and see which location gets more traffic, which service is most requested, the workload of your physicians, and much more. Track and analyze the numbers so you can make well-informed decisions and remove any guesswork.

05

Appointment limits

Ensure fair access for all patients and prevent overbooking with appointment limits. Set limits per patient: one per day, or until the previous session is complete. This helps you ensure consistent and on-time care for everyone.

06

Billing management

Display your prices on your booking page. You can charge patients when they schedule or collect payment at the time of appointment. Either way, we’ll keep track of your payments and update their status.

07

Registration portal

Have recurring patients sign up for a portal on your website. They can update their preferences, view upcoming appointments, and even schedule new ones. All of their details will be accessible to you both on the web and on our mobile app for Apple and Android devices.

08

Clinical notes

Get to know your patients even before you meet them through a booking form. Include a "Notes" option on your booking page so patients can explain the reason for their visit. You can even use the appointment summary to record any observations you want to refer to later.

09

WhatsApp notifications

Keep patients in the loop about upcoming consultations with WhatsApp notifications. Create notification templates in Meta Business Suite, add navigation buttons to your messages for simpler scheduling, and trigger notifications based on various appointment statuses.
