Abstract:
A healthcare patient appointment management system for managing patient appointments. The system includes an interactive voice response (IVR), teleconsult module, and SMS messaging system. The IVR module calls a patient, and solicits patient responses to confirm a patient appointment. The teleconsult module provides a teleconsultation with the patient. And the SMS messaging system provides SMS messages to the patient. A controller is in communication with the IVR module, teleconsult module, and SMS messaging system. The controller receives the patient responses from the interactive voice response module and determines if the patient confirmed the patient appointment. If the controller determines that the patient does not confirm the patient appointment, then the controller sends an SMS message to the patient via the SMS messaging system. The SMS message includes a link to conduct the teleconsultation with the patient and a healthcare provider via the teleconsult module.

Claim (Index 17):
A healthcare patient appointment management system for managing patient appointments, the system comprising:\n a storage device retaining patient information; a discrete interactive voice response module in communication with said storage device and configured to call a patient based on the patient information, and solicit patient responses to confirm a patient appointment; a discrete virtual teleconsult module in communication with said storage device and separate from said interactive voice response module, said virtual teleconsult module configured to provide a virtual teleconsultation with the patient based on the patient information; a discrete messaging system separate from said interactive voice response module and said virtual teleconsult module, said messaging module configured to provide a message to the patient; and a controller in communication with said storage device, said interactive voice response module, said virtual teleconsult module, and said messaging module, said controller receiving the patient responses from said interactive voice response module and determining if the patient confirms the patient appointment; wherein if said controller determines that the patient does not confirm the patient appointment, then said controller sends a message to the patient via said messaging system based on the patient information, said message including a link to conduct the virtual teleconsultation with the patient and a healthcare provider based on the patient information via said virtual teleconsult module, said controller further configuring the virtual teleconsultation based on patient information from said storage device.
