September 26, 2021 – Gotodoctor.ca, a leader in virtual care service, is further advancing its technology platform by introducing an application specifically designed to enhance communications between physicians and clinics with their patients. The Clinitok SMS application by Gotodoctor.ca is now listed as a WELL Health EMR featured application. 

Clinitok SMS is a unique clinic support tool that brings SMS text messaging benefits to physicians and patients. With this application, physicians and clinics can send custom SMS notifications to patients, using their EMR systems. WELL Health is one of the largest digital health organizations in Canada. Its EMR system services thousands of medical clinics, physicians and their patients. 

“With over 90% of SMS messages opened and read within minutes, SMS messaging is a much more effective and engaging communication tool, compared to email and other methods.” said Tommy Cheung, President and CEO, Gotodoctor.ca, “With the increased use of virtual care, we need to give patients the personalized attention to help them to access care and achieve better health outcomes. Clinitok SMS is one of the enablers of this omnichannel physician experience.” 

Clinitok SMS is directly integrated with OSCAR Pro EMR using its Application Program Interface (API). Each SMS notification is tracked in the EMR and becomes part of the patient record. It is one of the fastest and the most reliable ways to communicate with patients.

This easy-to-use application will enable physicians and clinics to:

• Reach out to a large number of their patients quickly, easily and cost-effectively
• Decrease administrative burden and labour costs on manual calls and mailing 
• Enhance record keeping with automated tracking in the EMR
• Improve attendance with appointment and other service reminders
• Broadcast a wide range of important patient notices: contacting the clinic, vaccine availability, holiday hours, public education seminars and many others applications
• Enhance communication to make patients more informed and feel empowered.
