Templates

Design it here, start ready-made, or bring a finished email

Choose the easiest starting point for each email, then preview it with clinic and patient details before anything is sent.

  • Clinic templates for common appointment emails
  • A drag-and-drop designer for layouts, images, buttons, colours, and booking details
  • A simple editor with bold and italic text controls
  • Finished HTML imports from Mailchimp, Beefree, Campaign Monitor, Brevo, and other builders
  • Patient, appointment, practitioner, location, booking, clinic, link, and reusable custom-text fields
  • Rendered previews and test emails
  • Optional communication-preferences footer

Automations

Choose when and why an appointment email sends

Create one automation with one or more email steps, then let Cliniko appointment activity keep it moving.

  • Send when a new matching booking appears
  • Send any number of minutes, hours, or days before or after a visit
  • Run longer-term recalls and rebooking reminders
  • Filter by locations, practitioners, appointment types, and medical alerts
  • Preview matching appointments before turning a rule on
  • Apply a new rule to relevant previous appointments when appropriate

Patient-aware rules

Skip emails when the clinic situation has changed

Plain-English controls help reduce stale reminders, repeated review requests, and emails that no longer make sense.

  • Use only a patient's latest matching appointment
  • Skip rebooking prompts when a new booking already exists
  • Limit how often the same patient receives an automation
  • Respect relevant Cliniko email preferences
  • Skip cancelled appointments and after-appointment emails when the patient did not arrive
  • Use active practitioners when matching clinic rules

Campaigns

Send one-off clinic updates to opted-in patients

Use the templates already in MyHealthFollowup for newsletters, education, announcements, and other careful clinic updates.

  • Sync names, email addresses, and marketing preferences from Cliniko
  • Search the audience and review consent status
  • Filter by locations, practitioners, appointment types, medical alerts, and upcoming appointments
  • Refresh the matching audience before preparing the campaign
  • Preview, test, send now, or schedule for later
  • Include an unsubscribe link and sync opt-outs to Cliniko when possible

Reporting

See what is waiting, sent, skipped, or needs attention

Reception and clinic managers can find useful answers without reading technical logs.

  • Scheduled messages ordered by send time
  • Search, status filters, and pagination for larger lists
  • Cancel upcoming messages and retry failures
  • Plain-English skip and failure reasons
  • Campaign delivery, bounce, open, click, and unsubscribe reporting
  • Delivery and complaint events for operational review

Sending

Start quickly, then use your clinic address when ready

Replies can go to the clinic from day one. After the trial, clinics can complete an automated sending-domain setup in the dashboard.

  • Clinic reply-to name and email
  • A MyHealthFollowup sending address while getting started
  • Automated clinic-domain setup with copyable DNS records
  • Clear verification status and human-readable setup errors
  • Server-side subscription and verification checks before clinic-domain sending
  • Admin early access for trusted trial clinics on request

Security and billing

Clinic-friendly controls with careful handling underneath

MyHealthFollowup keeps the interface straightforward while protecting connections, checking access, and leaving card handling to Stripe.

  • Backend-only Cliniko key handling
  • Patient details looked up close to automation send time where practical
  • Audit history for sensitive clinic changes
  • Stripe-hosted checkout and billing portal
  • 30-day free trial and practitioner-based plans
  • Campaign and delivery safeguards shown before sending
