Empower Online Booking is a comprehensive scheduling and patient-preparation platform built for modern medical clinics. Patients book appointments online with real-time availability from Accuro while clinics keep full control over complex scheduling rules, provider availability, and appointment workflows.
What makes Empower unique is that booking, appointment confirmations, reminders, and patient intake forms are part of a single integrated experience connected directly with the Scheduler and Patient Demographics in Accuro. When a patient books, the appointment can be automatically approved and linked to the appropriate patient demographic with appointment confirmations and reminders automatically sent based on patient preference (SMS or email) with the booking logic to present appointment types, availability, and intake questions as defined by clinic staff to reduce phone calls and manual data entry.
Empower is particularly well-suited for same-day/next-day urgent care clinics, high-volume clinics, multidisciplinary clinics, and organizations coordinating access across multiple clinic locations.
Empower has uniquely designed features for primary care practices accepting new patients with combined booking-and-registration flows, as well as coordinated primary care access for unrostered patients.
Empower supports complex routing and booking for specialty clinics and allied-health programs, as well as regional programs interested in providing a centralized online booking website accessible to everyone; Empower has supported multiple regional booking programs at high volume clinics where 100% of appointments were booked online.
