The PPS, TM2 and Click. patient Management Systems are all fully integrated into Pronto - However if you aren't using one of these systems, you can still sign up for the Pronto Portal. The Portal just requires you to access a web portal, and upload or set up your availability and then you'll recieve appointment notifications through text and email messaging instantly. Then you'll need to update your own systems or paper diaries accordingly. If you dont have a system, then there's never been a better time to start to automate your practice and benefit straight away. So contact one of the providers and you could be benefiting from a fully automated system soon.

For TM3 users there is a £1.20 (+VAT) fee for each new referral.

For Pronto Portal users there is a £1.80 (+VAT) fee for each new referral.

Pronto referrers prefer working with Pronto clinics. If you wish to receive referrals from a new referrer, contact them directly and let them know you are a Pronto member.

When you receive a referral, if you are using an integrated patient management system your system will prompt you if it thinks the referral is a patient already in your clinic. If the patient does already exist the booking is made against your existing patient record.

More referrers are joining the Pronto network all the time. Chances are your referrers are already in the process of joining up. Just in case they're not a member yet, let them know you are a member of Pronto and the benefits it brings. You can also contact the BlueZinc TM3 amd TM2 teams to make sure we are on the case.

Pronto referrers prefer working with Pronto clinics however the number of referrals you receive will be up to the relationship between yourself and the referrer. Pronto has no influence over which clinics receive referrals. However, Pronto makes sure the process is as easy and efficient as possible.
