Patient Appointment & EMR Integration System for a Medical Clinic Network

Challenges

A growing network of medical clinics in Australia struggled with fragmented patient appointment systems and inconsistent record syncing. Their key challenges:

Multiple booking tools that didn't sync with their EMR system.
Double-entry data issues leading to scheduling errors.
Long waiting times caused by inefficient patient flow.

They needed a unified, integrated solution that could automate scheduling and reduce administrative burdens.
