Vision Monday’s Intelligent Office series of articles continues exploring how eyecare practices and optical retail stores use new technologies such as smart phones, tablets, apps and cloud computing to manage information with unprecedented speed and efficiency.

 
In this installment of The Intelligent Office series, Vision Monday explores patient communication and engagement systems from 4PatientCare, Brevium, Demandforce, Solutionreach, TeleVox and Websystem3. These software programs integrate with electronic health records, practice management systems and other electronic tools to interact with patients before, during and after an appointment, ensuring that they remain engaged throughout the entire process while making the practice itself more efficient and successful.

In conjunction, Vision Monday has also created an information-rich Intelligent Office microsite at www.visionmonday.com/intelligent-office that serves as a unique resource where you’ll find information from The Intelligent Office series as well as links to related articles, videos and other content about mobile health, EHR, patient portals, patient education, diagnostic instruments, patient education, lens and dispensing technology, practice management and staff training. ■
