WHY CHOOSE ELARA ASSOCIATES
in every workflow.
where systems allow.
for reminders and follow-ups.
so every email has substance.
not just open rates.
Email can be used in compliance with HIPAA when the right platforms, agreements, and content practices are in place. Some marketing messages may require patient authorization. We work with your compliance lead or counsel to confirm the approach.
Appointment and care reminders relate to a patient’s treatment. Promotional messages about services have additional rules. We help you separate them and handle each appropriately.
Most practices send a newsletter monthly or quarterly, plus automated reminders based on care schedules.
Email mainly supports existing patients and referrals. For new patients, it works best alongside SEO, PPC, and social.
We recommend a platform based on your needs and privacy requirements.
Let’s plan an email program that keeps patients connected to your practice.
