Overview
What is the patient self-enrollment feature?
Patients can submit enrollment requests for your membership plans through a secure public enrollment page. Their form submission creates a patient chart (if one doesn’t already exist), captures payment information, and sends the request to your practice for review. You can stay in control by approving or denying the request before any charges begin.Why should I use patient self-enrollment?
- Reduces administrative work by letting patients submit enrollment requests to your practice on their own.
- Helps your practice grow more efficiently by collecting key patient details and payment upfront.
- Ensures charges won’t begin until your team activates the membership.
