Personalizing Templates with the Patient's Name
To automatically include a patient names in all InstaReview requests:
-
From the YAPI Dashboard, click the Online icon.
-
Select InstaReview, then Setup.
-
Locate the grey section with boxes labelled Message text and add the code %x in each template where you want the patient's name to go:
- Click Save and close the window.
Personalizing the Appointment-Specific Template with the Provider's Name
You can also include the name of the provider within an InstaReview request that is sent:
- Automatically when a patient visits your office
- Manually from a room in the Dashboard during a patient visit
Because these InstaReview requests are linked to a specific appointment, YAPI can pull the name of the specific provider for that appointment:
To include the appointment providers' names in these InstaReview requests:
-
From the YAPI Dashboard, click Setup & Manage and select Global Setup.
-
When prompted, enter your YAPI password.
-
Click the Providers tab.
-
Next to each provider, double-click the space in the Preferred Name column and type in the name as you'd like it to appear in InstaReview requests.
-
At the bottom of the window, add a Default Preferred Name (usually your primary provider at the practice). Then click Save and OK.
Note: If prompted to restart your workstation, click OK and ignore this. You don't need to restart your workstations.
-
Close the Global Setup window, then click the Online icon in the Dashboard toolbar.
-
Select InstaReview, then Setup.
-
Locate the Message text when appointment info exists template and enter the code %a where you want the provider's name to appear:
-
Click Save, then close the window.
Note: YAPI uses the name of the provider assigned to the patient at the time the request sends. If you want to change the patient's provider before checking them in, do so within your practice management software. To change the provider in YAPI before a patient is dismissed, see Changing The Provider For a Patient Within YAPI.
