Patient Outreach
Reach every patient on the channel they actually read
OhMD lets practices send targeted text outreach — reminders, recalls, announcements, and preventive care nudges — to groups of patients at once, without a single phone call. Because it's delivered as a normal text message, patients see it and respond, instead of letting it sit unread in a portal.

What patient outreach looks like before and after OhMD


Before
Outreach is one-way and easy to ignore
Reminder calls go to voicemail, portal messages go unread, and mailers get tossed, leaving staff to manually call patients who don't respond to any of it.
After
Outreach starts a conversation patients actually finish
A broadcast text reaches patients directly on their phone, and because it's two-way, a patient can confirm, reschedule, or ask a question in the same thread instead of triggering another phone call.
OhMD's broadcast and campaign tools send targeted messages to groups of patients while keeping every reply as a real two-way conversation.
