The Role of CRM in Patient Management
Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems are becoming essential in healthcare to enhance the patient experience and continuity of care. They streamline communication between healthcare providers and patients, ensuring that follow-ups and appointments are managed effectively. Unlike traditional methods that may rely on manual calls, CRM can automate alerts, helping to ensure patients return for necessary procedures or check-ups. This automation not only improves patient satisfaction but also assists healthcare organizations in tracking patient engagement over time.
