In short

How can I automatically identify and recall ophthalmology patients due for their annual exam?

WebRun opens Nextech every morning, finds patients due for their annual eye exam, and drafts a personalized recall message for each. It logs the full list to Google Sheets and alerts staff in Slack so the team can review and approve every message before any outreach reaches a patient.

  • No overdue annual-exam patient slips through the recall queue
  • Staff spend minutes approving drafts instead of hours building recall lists
  • Every recall message is reviewed before it reaches a patient

Built for ophthalmology practices · optometry clinics · eye care groups · front-desk staff

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it send recall messages to patients automatically?

No. WebRun drafts every recall message and queues it in Google Sheets for staff review. No message reaches a patient until a team member approves it, keeping protected health information secure.

How does it decide which patients are due for a recall?

It reads each patient's last exam date directly from Nextech and flags anyone whose annual visit falls between 11 and 13 months ago or is already overdue, using live data on every run.

Can it filter by provider or location?

Yes. You can configure WebRun to scope the recall list to specific providers or clinic locations within Nextech so each front-desk team only sees their own patient queue.
