Treatment-plan follow-up

Every treatment plan gets a next step.

When a patient leaves with a plan and doesn't book, Coherent notices. It finds them in your PMS, follows up in your clinic's voice, answers their questions to your rules and puts the approved booking in your diary.

30 minutes. Bring your consultation numbers, not patient details.

One treatment plan, two outcomes

Why plans stall

A patient with a plan has already said yes once.

They came in, heard the options and took a plan home. Without a next step, the decision drifts.

1

Busy beats important

Plans get followed up when someone has a spare moment, and that moment rarely comes.

What we do

Coherent finds open plans in your PMS every day, by your rules.

2

Questions nobody answers

Patients go quiet over cost, timing or nerves, waiting for someone to ask.

What we do

A coordinator answers the non-clinical questions; clinical ones go to your team.

3

Hiring to chase

The usual fix is another person on the desk to work through the list.

What we do

Coordinators work the list, and your team sees every conversation.

How it runs

From plan to first appointment.

The programme runs every day from your PMS. Your team sees every conversation, and steps in only when you want them to.

Works with your PMS

Runs on the PMS you already have.

Treatment-plan follow-up reads your appointment history and puts approved bookings back in your diary. Your team keeps working in your PMS as it does today.

Fit and limits

A strong fit when plans go quiet.

Treatment-plan follow-up reaches patients who had a consultation or plan and haven't booked. It doesn't replace your clinician's conversation.

A good fit

  • Consultations happen, but plenty of plans never get booked.
  • Plans get followed up when someone has a spare moment.
  • You were about to hire someone to chase them.

Know the limits

  • Not clinical advice: anything clinical goes straight to your team.
  • Not pressure: messages stop when a patient says no.
  • Runs on the PMSs we work with.

Questions

What clinics ask about treatment-plan follow-up.

Answers reviewed with our product team before publishing. Last updated 12 November 2026.

Ask us your own question
Which plans does it follow up?

The ones your rules include: the consultations and treatments you choose, minus anyone already booked or anyone your team shouldn't contact.

Will patients who already have an appointment hear from us?

No. The programme checks your diary first, so a patient with a future appointment isn't chased.

Who answers questions about cost or treatment?

Coordinators answer the non-clinical questions your rules cover, such as times and payment options. Clinical questions always go to your team.

What if a patient says no?

The programme stops. Nobody is chased after saying no.

Can we go back to patients who declined on price?

Yes. If your prices or offers change, a programme can reach patients who declined a plan, on the rules you set.

What does it cost?

One monthly price per programme, set by your appointment volume. We quote after the call.
