The "Rescheduled" status allows a practice to create a new appointment for a patient when they need to move the date/time/location of their appointment. This status also alerts the reminder system and prevents the system from sending out incorrect or outdated appointment information.
When should we use the Rescheduled status?
The practice may determine that the rescheduled status should be used when the date, time, location, or resource needs to be changed for the patient's appointment. The practice may also determine that the patient will need to receive an appointment reminder for updated appointment information. The status change will also allow the practice to efficiently manage the patient's appointment history by reviewing past appointments in the "Rescheduled Status."
