What Are the Recall Due & Past Due Reports?

YAPI generates two types of recall reports: the Recall Due Report and the Recall Past Due Report.  These reports show which of your patients are coming due or are overdue for a recall appointment according to the recall settings in your practice management software.  They also show:

• Which recall each patient is due for
• How close to or how far past their due date a patient is
• What types of recall reminders have been sent
• The dates recall reminders were sent
• Notes generated by team members at your practice.

You can access either report by clicking the circular blue arrow icon  in your YAPI Dashboard toolbar.

 

Why Use Recall Due & Past Due Reports?

When it comes to Recall Reminders, YAPI does most of the heavy lifting with its automated setup, but these reports give you the opportunity to go even further with your recalls. 

Observe Trends - You can sort each report by due date, last, name, and recall type in the Past Due Report, you can filter further by how long a patient is overdue.  This gives you the chance to see trends with your recalls over time like the effectiveness of your recall system, which procedures tend to become overdue more often, and how many reminders patients are receiving before getting on the schedule.

Take Notes - If you want to find out who is due or overdue and reach out on a more personalized basis, these reports also have a Notes column where you indicate phone calls to each patient along with next steps.  This way, your team knows exactly what's already been done so they they're not doubling their work. 

Target Promotions - Have a great offer coming out soon? The Recall Past Due list includes a Copy button that feeds directly into YAPI's Mail Blast feature, allowing you to send an extra mail blast to your overdue patients to help get their recall scheduled sooner.

 

How Often Do the Reports Update?

Reports update each night when YAPI does housekeeping so if you don't see information showing up on your report that you know has been changed within your practice management software, that's likely the reason why.  While changes to a patient's profile are automatically reflected in other places like the Patient Finder, YAPI needs housekeeping to run for them to show on these reports.
