Recruiting Patients: How to Send an OnDemand Campaign

Pharmacies with Patient Communications have been set up with two OnDemand SMS campaigns to help facilitate this service:

  • One campaign containing the link to the intake form with an appointment scheduler.

To send an OnDemand campaign, follow the below steps:

Sending from a Patient List

  1. Click Active Patients from the left-hand navigation menu of your Patient Engagement Center (PEC). Apply filters, using the Filters button, to identify the specific group of patients.
  2. Select the checkbox next to the patients’ name for the patients who you would like to receive the communications.
  3. Once you have selected the patients, click the Actions button above the list, and select OnDemand. A window will appear.
  4. Select the Time you would like the campaign to be sent.
  5. Click Select next to the desired campaign message. You will see your Contact-free Vaccination campaigns here.
  6. Review your selected OnDemand communication. Once you have confirmed the information is correct, click Send Message to send the campaign.

Scheduling a Campaign from the OnDemand Screen

  1. Click the gear icon from your top navigation bar and select OnDemand from the drop-down menu.
  2. Input phone number(s) of the patients that you would like to receive your OnDemand campaign (You can even copy and paste numbers from dispensing system lists).
  3. Select which Time you would like for the campaign to be sent. Then, click Select next to the desired campaign message. You will see your Contact-free Vaccination campaigns here.
  4. Review your selected OnDemand communication. Once you have confirmed the information is correct, click Send Message to send the campaign.

*You can input up to 400 phone numbers at once. Voice campaigns will be sent in batches of 100, with each batch sent over a 15-minute period. Once the period has ended, you can begin another OnDemand campaign.
