Getting Data From Your Practice Management System
Step 1: Initial Setup - 3 Month Report
This one-time-only setup helps ensure that the PhoneTree software has all the information
needed to incorporate data from your appointment schedules into automated messages.
Because not every appointment type or provider might be represented on your daily
appointment report (for example, a certain provider may be on vacation at the time of
report creation, therefore showing no appointments), you will initially set up PhoneTree to
read from an appointment report showing three months of appointment information. This
guide will show you how to create this report.
Step 2: Daily Operation - Daily Report
Once your PhoneTree system has seen all possible providers, appointment types, and other
information for three months out, then you’re ready to create your daily report, from which
PhoneTree will make calls on a daily basis. This will be almost exactly like creating a threemonth report, except that it will show appointments only for the upcoming day. It is from
this report that PhoneTree will create messages each day. After your PhoneTree has been
configured with a 3-month report, you will be able to import a daily report with the
instructions provided here.
