Clinic owner is frustrated with the time and hassle of handling phone calls, which include spam, appointment changes, unpaid requests, and negotiations, and is considering eliminating the phone number entirely.
The online booking platform allows patients to book and cancel appointments, but it has a 24-hour cancellation restriction. Patients still call to negotiate cancellations or make requests that are not handled online. The phone remains a channel for unpaid or non-billable requests, spam, and communication with doctors, which the current online system doesn't address.
Workarounds Described
- stopped answering calls
- ordered business cards without phone number, directing patients to online booking platform
Implied Software Gaps
- Digital communication platform that replaces phone calls with secure messaging and automated handling of appointment requests and cancellations
- Spam filtering and call screening for business lines, integrated with scheduling to block unwanted calls
- Billing system that automatically captures and charges for patient requests that are billable, reducing unpaid work
