  • Publication number: 20110313784
    Abstract: A healthcare information communication system is configured to send automated messages to patients of a medical practice based, at least in part, on data stored on a practice management system. Integration between components of the healthcare information communication system and the practice management system including a health information management system and a billing management system facilitate patient visits to a medical practice by reducing the burden on medical practice personnel to collect all information from patients during visits to the medical practice. Automated messaging and reminder of appointments based on information stored in the practice management system reduce the amount of revenue lost by a medical practice due to last minute cancellations, no-shows at the medical practice, and uncollected outstanding bills.
