Smart bookings are advanced, technology-driven systems that optimise the scheduling of patient appointments. These systems use algorithms and data analysis to manage and allocate appointment slots efficiently, considering factors such as patient preferences, healthcare provider availability, and resource utilisation. Smart bookings often integrate with electronic health records (EHR) and practice management software, providing seamless coordination and reducing administrative burden. Features may include automated reminders, online booking capabilities, and real-time updates, enhancing the patient experience by making appointment scheduling more convenient and reducing wait times. By streamlining the booking process, smart bookings contribute to improved operational efficiency and patient satisfaction.
