“We saw the world moving away from outdated manual calls toward real-time messaging, which fosters more meaningful and impactful interactions."

“Patients were asking for it. You can get text messages from your hairstylist or veterinarian — the technology is clearly available — why not receive them from your doctor’s office?”

“What we found is that seniors text more than people believe, especially those who are moving here to retire from other areas.”

“They love (Artera)! It’s one of those things that, if it went away, I think we would have very unhappy patients.”

"Before, when the front desk took payment, staff had to manually enter it into the practice management system which was a multi-step process. Auto-posting patient payments in real-time is a huge win and saves on labor.”

“The staff would love for everyone to utilize the texting feature. It’s less burdensome, and it allows them to handle multiple patients almost simultaneously.”

“Managing the portal was quite cumbersome because it didn’t work directly with [our EHR] NextGen. Basically, it was just spitting out a report [of patient responses] that our staff would still have to review, then update in the IT system accordingly.”

“The value of this campaign is that it delivered a timely reminder for patients to come in for their mammography and made it easy for them to schedule their appointment.”

“Wanted to get a tool that was really robust and propelled us into current times” compared to the old system that “was limited in capabilities.”

“This ultimately was about improving our text messaging system.”

“Able to quickly send out over 47,000 messages to inform patients of the poor air quality and to watch out for any relevant symptoms."
