Confirmation vs. Insurance Verification View
If you have the Insurance Verification feature, you can switch between two different views in your schedule: Confirmation and Insurance.
Confirmation View: This is the default view where you can see the confirmation status of each appointment.
Insurance View: This view shows the insurance verification results for each patient. To switch to the Insurance View, select Insurance at the top of the schedule page. Before checking the status in this view, ensure that you run the verification process from the Insurance page.
Creating Custom Campaigns: At the top of the schedule, you can select the Create Campaign button to start a Custom Campaign. This will automatically include anyone scheduled for that day. You will have the option to "fine-tune" the recipients before sending the message.
