**Contents ** What is Zocdoc? Zocdoc© is an online platform that allows patients to find and book appointments with healthcare providers in their area. Zocdoc helps patients find available appointments quickly based on criteria such as accepted insurance, distance, provider speciality, and more. What is the Elation-Zocdoc integration? The integration between Elation and Zocdoc allows your practice to efficiently view and manage calendar availability and Zocdoc bookings. The Zocdoc calendar pulls real-time availability from provider calendars in Elation to display available appointments to patients. When a patient books an appointment with a provider on Zocdoc, their Elation calendar will update and reflect the Zocdoc booking. How do I get started? At least one Provider Level User at your practice will need to have an account with Zocdoc to start the integration. Zocdoc User Setup To connect your ZocDoc account to your Elation account, submit a request here: https://www.zocdoc.com/partner/elationhealth . Zocdoc will reach out to you once the form has been completed.
If you do not have an account with Zocdoc, please register for an account through this Zocdoc-Elation landing page so that ZocDoc knows you are an Elation user when you register: https://www.zocdoc.com/partner/elationhealth
