Why patients choose self-booking

Many patients prefer to schedule online when it’s convenient.

Online booking is designed to give your practice a presence outside of business hours and to reduce the volume of routine scheduling calls handled by your front desk.

After-hours booking

Designed to allow patients to request appointments outside business hours, on weekends, or during your team’s lunch break — without requiring a staff member on the phone.

Embedded website widget

A booking widget designed to drop into your existing website. Configurable by appointment type, provider, and operatory rules you set in your PMS.

Insurance & intake pre-fill

Designed to collect insurance information and trigger digital intake forms before the visit, paired with our Paperless Intake module.

PMS write-back

Bookings are designed to flow back into Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, and other major PMS, so your front desk avoids manual re-entry.1

Reminders with TCPA-compliant consent

Once booked, the system is designed to send SMS and email reminders. SMS uses opt-in consent language and STOP-to-unsubscribe handling consistent with TCPA guidance.

Custom availability rules

Designed to let you control which appointment types are bookable online, by which providers, on which days — mirroring the rules you already use internally.

How it works

From booking request to PMS-ready — designed end-to-end.

A connected workflow designed to reduce manual entry between the booking widget, intake forms, and your practice management system.

1

Patient books

From your website widget, a direct link, or via Zaha’s phone coverage when configured.

2

Insurance captured

Designed to collect insurance details during the booking flow for downstream verification.

3

Forms & reminders

Digital intake forms and reminder messages are designed to dispatch with TCPA-compliant consent text.

4

PMS write-back

Designed to write the appointment, demographics, and intake responses back to your PMS1.

Optional · Zaha AI phone coverage

For the calls your team can’t pick up.

Some practices pair the booking widget with Zaha, mConsent’s AI phone assistant. Zaha is designed to answer inbound calls when your team is unavailable and to route routine scheduling requests into the same booking workflow.

Routes to your booking flow — designed to schedule routine appointment types into your PMS rules.
Escalation handling — designed to route clinical or complex calls to staff voicemail or a callback queue.
Call recording & review — designed to give your team transcripts and summaries for QA.
