Appointment and token systems for clinics and hospitals
KINNEX Team4 min read
Waiting is the first thing patients notice.
Booking channels
Web, mobile app, WhatsApp, phone and walk-in, all feeding one schedule. Avoid separate books for each channel.
Doctor schedules
Support fixed sessions, visiting-doctor days, multiple rooms and branches, leave and emergency blocks.
Reminders
Automatic messages before the visit reduce no-shows. Allow easy rescheduling.
Tokens and queues
Walk-ins receive tokens, shown on a waiting-room display and on the patient’s phone. Staff see the live queue.
Linking to the record
After check-in, the visit flows into the patient record, billing and, if needed, the laboratory and pharmacy.
Privacy
Show tokens, not names, on public screens. Protect patient data with role-based access and encryption.
Reporting
Waiting times, no-show rates and doctor utilisation help improve scheduling.
Rollout
Start with one department, gather feedback from reception staff, then extend.
