Self-Scheduling

Managing self-scheduling

Self-scheduling allows patients to request and schedule their own imaging appointments through the link provided by their organisation. Availability of this feature depends on the type of license purchased by each organisation.

This section explains how administrators can enable self-scheduling and how patients can use it to request appointments, upload documents, and complete forms.
