One of the main advantages is as follows: Patients receive SMS appointment reminder some time before the meeting, avoiding accidental neglect of the patient and providing a sufficient period for the cancellation of the same if not to attend. This leads to better management of appointments, and a significant reduction in economic costs (phone calls, mail, ..) to prevent accidental loss of revenue (patient who miss an appointment) and not least, a gain from time to employees, as the person who was dedicated to make calls or send letters to remember appointments, you can focus on other more important tasks. Another advantage is that the messaging system can be included in an agenda-SMS to the doctor might write down your appointments and calendar system send an automatic SMS reminder for them. This would send personalized SMS for each of the patients. Besides the above the SMS would cost coverage guaranteed and really cheap.
