An SMS with the appointments scheduled (in advance 2 days) is sent to patients of certain specialties (Radiology, victims of traffic accidents and sports). It is planned to extend it to other specialties. This mHealth solution is designed to help patients avoid forgetting an appointment, and to help reduce absenteeism of scheduled appointments by optimizing available resources.
