Healthcare Needs Specialized CRM
Healthcare practices need patient relationship management, not generic sales CRM. But most healthcare-specific tools are overpriced.
Key Requirements
- HIPAA compliance — encrypted data, access controls, audit logs
- Patient management — demographics, history, preferences
- Appointment scheduling — online booking, reminders, waitlists
- Follow-up automation — post-visit surveys, recall reminders
- Referral tracking — physician referral sources and conversions
