In this session, learn about how online appointment booking (OAB) will replace standard methods like phone, fax, and traditional mail. Hear how aggregating OABs into a Jurisdictional Scheduler, with a single patient access point, could simplify appointment tracking for patients and allow physicians to continue maintaining their own systems.
