Setting up a recurring appointment series

A patient in ongoing care rarely needs a single appointment, they need the same slot, week after week. RafaNest can set up the whole series in one action instead of you booking each visit by hand.

Booking the series

When booking a manual appointment, choose a repeating series instead of a single visit, pick weekly, every two weeks or monthly, and choose how many occurrences you want.

Each date is checked on its own

RafaNest checks every date in the series against your working hours, your blocked dates and anything already on the calendar. A date that does not fit is skipped, and you see exactly which dates were skipped and why, rather than the whole series failing or silently double-booking something.

One message, not one per visit

The series is confirmed with a single message, so a patient with ten upcoming visits gets one confirmation rather than ten separate notices.

Managing a visit after the series is booked

Once booked, each appointment in the series behaves like any other. You can reschedule or cancel a single visit without touching the rest of the series, which matters the first time a patient needs to skip just one week.

A recurring series pairs naturally with a prepaid treatment card, since both are built for a patient committing to an ongoing course of care rather than a single visit.
