VSee Clinic 5.1.0 - Try the New On-call Schedule with Automated Alerts and Escalation

Authors list

The VSee Product Team is excited to announce our new On-Call Schedule capability in the Clinic calendar! The new On-Call Schedule gives you a simple way to manage and automate your on-call telehealth coverage. You can now:

  • Set your clinic to automatically close if there are no on-call clinicians available

  • Schedule a clinician or a clinician group to cover on-call time slots

  • Automate alerts that only send to the assigned clinician(s) during their scheduled on-call time slots.

  • Create custom clinician alert groups that will be notified in your preferred order of escalation

The On-Call Schedule feature is available by request for Enterprise accounts starting Sept. 11.


Setting Up Your On-call Schedule


Define Your Clinic Walk-in/ On-call Hours

We have added settings to give you finer control over your clinic’s Walk-in Hours. You now have the option to auto-open and close your waiting room to walk-ins based on your On-call Schedule. When you choose this option, your Clinic will automatically close during the hours when you have no clinicians scheduled for any On-call Schedule slots.

Create On-call slots

On-call slots let you assign clinicians to cover specified walk-in hours. They can be easily distinguished from the appointment slots on your calendar. To create an on-call slot, simply create a new visit or edit an existing visit as usual. The first line now gives you the option to select either an Appointment slot or a Walk-in/On-call slot. Select Walk-in/On-call slot, and continue scheduling as you normally would.

Setting Up Your Clinician Alert Groups


Configure Your Patient Walk-in Alert Settings

With the Admin panel access, you can select your preferred Alert Settings. You can now set designated on-call clinicians and clinician groups to receive priority alerts as soon as a walk-in patient enters the waiting room.


Create Custom Alert Groups & Assign Escalation Order

Create a custom alert group and assign to which group to send the priority alert when no one has taken the visit based on escalation conditions.
