Recall & patient reactivation (email + SMS)
Layer on top of your practice management system — not a clinical or scheduling replacement.

For marketing teams running segments, landing pages, and lifecycle campaigns.
Referral partner tracking (light CRM)
Only if you track referring providers — skip if you only need patient campaigns.
