Effective patient reminders

Your vaccination and treatment reminders are of vital importance to your patient’s health and your practice’s success. Treatment reminders are generated for every patient based on your rules. VIA’s reminder wizard handles marketing campaigns for sending reminders to your clients in the form of emails, postcards, or integration with marketing services from Vetstreet, Demandforce, and others. Each reminder’s effectiveness is tracked so you can alter your message between the first, second, or later requests for action.

The vet’s authorized VIA treatment plan items, along with the patient information, are provided to the Cubex cabinet to ensure that only the proper medications are dispensed and billed for every time. Before closing out the invoice, VIA checks with the cabinet to ensure nothing was missed and all dispensed items are accurately billed for.

Eliminate missed charges

Generate invoices directly from treatment plans and completed tasks or enter charges using our Quickbooks style interface. Our flowsheet updates client charges whenever tasks are carried out by staff. Load estimates directly to the client invoice to save time. Be informed in real-time when the client charges are getting close to their desired total bill threshold.

Email clients and referring vets

Email complete medical records, client education documents, billing receipts, and referral letters with the click of button. Our email templates help save time by loading the client’s information and converting your printouts into attachments. Simply customize your message and send. Every email is recorded in the client’s event journal for your historical review.

Capture signatures electronically

Eliminate the hassles of scanning and storing client authorization forms by capturing signatures onscreen. Simply have the client review the document to be signed onscreen and sign with a stylus, or even a finger. The signature then becomes embedded within the document and is stored in VIA and can be printed whenever necessary.
