Send new prescriptions to patients by email and WhatsApp

When a doctor logs a new prescription, patients automatically get it by email and WhatsApp with no extra steps.

How the work actually flows

It branches. Every path runs; all paths must finish before it continues; runs once per each new prescription.

The problem it solves

After writing a prescription, staff still have to manually email or message it to the patient, and things get missed when the office is busy. Patients are left waiting or calling in to ask what was prescribed.

Who it fits

A medical practice or clinic that wants prescriptions delivered to patients automatically.

How it works

  1. A doctor enters a new prescription into a spreadsheet
  2. The system checks for prescriptions marked as new
  3. A formatted prescription email is sent to the patient
  4. A WhatsApp message with the prescription details is sent as well
  5. The record is logged and marked as sent
What you get

Prescriptions patients receive the moment they're written

The moment a doctor logs a prescription, the patient receives it right away by email and WhatsApp.

What you get

A delivered prescription in the patient's email and WhatsApp, with a log of every notification sent.

What you need

A Google account, an email service, and a WhatsApp Business API account.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
