ARPADENT SMS Integration

A patient texts your practice on a Sunday night to move their Tuesday appointment, and by Monday morning the front desk still has to open ARPADENT and add the number if the patient is new, or check the record if they already exist. That extra step is easy to miss when the phones are already busy with the day's calls and the waiting room is filling up.

Connecting Mobile Message to ARPADENT through Zapier removes that step from the desk's workload. Whenever someone texts the practice, whether it is a new patient enquiring about care or an existing one confirming a visit, that reply can run the Add or Update Client action in ARPADENT straight away, so the record is current before anyone has looked at their phone. The clinic stops relying on someone remembering to type the details in later.

The same connection covers reminder texts that never arrive. If a reminder to a patient bounces because the mobile number on file is wrong, Mobile Message's Delivery Status Updated event can update that client's record in ARPADENT, so the practice knows to check the number before the next appointment rather than finding out after a patient misses it.
