Manage New Patient Requests
The New Patient Requests feature in the PlacidWay Provider Portal allows providers to view and manage incoming patient inquiries in one centralized dashboard. Each request represents a Request for Information (RFI) submitted by potential patients interested in specific treatments or procedures.
This section helps providers quickly review patient details, assign case owners, track lead status, and start communication through multiple channels. By organizing inquiries in a structured list, providers can respond faster, manage follow-ups efficiently, and improve conversion rates.
