Patient Reminder
This application focuses on using the BA-1000
as a patient reminder dialer for medical
appointments. The dialer will be set up to call your
patients and remind them of an upcoming
appointment (with an optional, individual personal
message for each patient). The reminder message,
you record, will be played to live people or their
answering machines.
This section is designed to get the system “On
Line” fast! Each of these sections assumes you are
starting from the main MENU. You can always
return to the menu by pressing the ~ enough times.
