Within Engagement, you can manually copy and paste an Online Scheduling link to send directly to a patient, or you can use the "Invite to Schedule" option built into their patient menu. Using the Invite to Schedule option will pre-fill the patients information for them, including contact information, provider, and appointment type. From there, the patient simply selects a time that is convenient for them and completes the scheduling process within seconds.
