Creating patient groups and group appointments
Patient Groups help you organize patients you see together. You can manage members and schedule appointments from one group workspace.
In this guide, we'll cover:
Before you begin: Group Sessions must be turned on for your practice. Your clinician profile must also include a National Provider Identifier (NPI). A group can include up to 10 patients. If you don't see Groups , ask a practice administrator to confirm that Group Sessions is turned on.
Note: Patients don't see the group name, the member list, or another patient's information.
Creating a patient group
To create a patient group:
The new group opens with its members and group tools.
Adding or removing members
To add a member:
To remove a member, open the menu next to the patient's name and select Remove Member .
Important: Removing a member removes them from future group actions and upcoming group appointment occurrences. It doesn't remove records already saved to the patient's chart. Removing the last member also deletes the group.
Renaming or deleting a group
Select Group settings next to the group name. You can rename the group or delete it.
Important: Deleting a group can't be undone. It also cancels upcoming appointments for that group.
