Medical and Health

For businesses in the medical and health sector, such as counseling, dentistry, psychology, physiotherapy, and chiropractic services, efficient appointment scheduling and patient management are vital. Opencals, a versatile booking app for Shopify, offers a robust solution to streamline your operations and enhance patient care.

Simplified Practitioner and Staff Management

Managing multiple practitioners and staff members in a healthcare setting can be challenging. Opencals simplifies this process:

• Personalized Weekly Schedules: Create and manage individual recurring schedules for each practitioner, including their availability, holidays, and days off. This ensures accurate scheduling and availability for your patients.
• Service-Specific Assignments: Assign practitioners to specific services they provide. This allows patients to choose their preferred practitioner when booking, enhancing their comfort and satisfaction.

Services

• Patient-Centric Options: Offer services at clinics, hospitals, or through telehealth, ensuring patients can choose the best option for their needs.
• Appointment Coordination: Align schedules of healthcare providers with location availability for efficient patient management.

Flexible Appointment Scheduling

Do you offer services that are only available during specific times or require special scheduling? Opencals accommodates these needs:

• Non-Repeating Schedules: Set up schedules for services available only during certain periods. For example, create a schedule for a seasonal flu clinic, ensuring patients have access to accurate availability and service details.
• Days Off Incorporate days off and holidays into staff members' schedules to designate times when they are unavailable.

Integrated Calendar Management

Keeping track of appointments and practitioner schedules is crucial for smooth operations. Opencals simplifies this process:

• Calendar Linking: Link your practitioners' and staff members' calendars to Opencals. This integration allows them to view all their appointments without needing access to your admin panel, reducing the risk of missed appointments and ensuring everyone stays organized.

Customizable Appointment Durations

Medical and health services often require flexible booking durations, such as extended counseling sessions. Opencals provides the flexibility needed:

• Variable Duration Booking: Allow patients to book appointments for custom durations. For example, if a standard one-hour counseling session costs $100, a patient can book a two-hour session and pay $200. This feature enhances convenience and maximizes your booking potential.

Group Session Bookings

For services that can accommodate multiple patients at once, such as group therapy sessions or health workshops, Opencals supports group bookings:

• Multiple Attendees Per Slot: Set a maximum number of participants per session, allowing multiple patients to book the same time slot. This optimizes your resources and increases your service capacity.

Online Session Integrations

If your appointments and sessions are conducted online, Opencals integrates seamlessly with Google Meet and Zoom. This integration creates online meetings for each booking, ensuring that both your patients and practitioners receive invitation links with access details. This functionality extends to group online sessions as well, providing a smooth and cohesive virtual experience.
