Additional Services
In addition to the above, we are able to provide you with the following additional services if you require:
- At short notice, we are able to host your Medical Wizard system and data on the cloud so that you can access Medical Wizard from home and/or your personal office without having to worry about maintaining your server infrastructure in your premises. This way Medical Wizard can be run even on low-end machines as the heavy work will be done on the cloud server. All that is required is a stable internet connection
- We can set up a generic patient portal to enable your patients to update and submit their demographic details and clinical data online. The data submitted by patients online will be imported in to relevant fields in Medical Wizard. This enables you to get access to accurate patient information and patient clinical history with minimal effort from you
- Patients can request appointments online via the Patient Portal 24/7, thus saving time on having to call to book appointments, which in turn helps you to manage your staff resources more effectively and efficiently
- You will be able to safely and securely communicate with your patients via the patient portal by providing relevant and specific documentation, instructions and information videos
- If you do not already utilise our SMS communication option, we can get this implemented at your site within 24 hours. This option allows you to communicate with your patient using SMS for appointment reminders and in many other aspects of patient care and follow up
We wish to assure you of our total commitment to assist you during this difficult period as best as we can.
Stay safe and take care.
