- Is this just SMS reminders?
- No. Reminders are one channel of seven sequences we operate. Recall and Reactivation also includes hygiene-recall automation, post-op follow-up, lapsed-patient win-back, no-show recovery, treatment-plan acceptance follow-up, dormant-membership reactivation, and birthday or anniversary touchpoints. Each of these is calibrated by service line, channel, timing, and offer.
- How is this different from what my EHR or PMS already does?
- Most EHR-native recall is a static reminder fired on a fixed cadence with no segmentation, no channel optimization, and no measurement loop. The Rocklane Recall and Reactivation system layers on top of your EHR with multi-channel delivery including SMS, email, voice, and direct mail where appropriate. We utilize behavioral segmentation by service line and patient value, A/B-tested copy and offers, and reconciled outcomes back to produced revenue.
- What kind of revenue lift is realistic?
- Lapsed-patient revenue is typically 15 to 25 percent of a mature practice's addressable book, and most of it sits dormant because nobody operates a system against it. Clients commonly recover 8 to 15 percent of that book in the first 90 days of operation. This naturally shifts to a steady-state retention motion as the dormant pool is cleared.
- How fast does it install?
- Standard install is 21 days. During week one, we audit your patient database and segment by service line, last-visit recency, and historical value. In week two, we ship the first three sequences, which include hygiene recall, post-op follow-up, and lapsed-patient win-back, then wire delivery into your stack. During week three, we backfill the remaining sequences and turn on outcome reconciliation.
- Does this risk patient annoyance or unsubscribes?
- Frequency caps, channel preferences, and quiet-hours rules are enforced at the patient level rather than the sequence level. The system never fires more than a documented number of touchpoints per patient per month across all sequences. Any patient who unsubscribes from one channel is automatically suppressed from the others. The unsubscribe rate in healthy programs sits below 0.4 percent monthly.
