The Situation
Patients were moving between channels, but the experience did not move with them.
Booking on the web did not always match the app, video visits struggled on older devices, and reminders were not consistent enough to reduce no-shows.

Fewer missed appointments
Channel state was inconsistent
Patients saw different schedule details depending on whether they used web or mobile.
Video visits needed resilience
Older devices and low-bandwidth conditions made the visit path unreliable for some patients.
Reminders were fragmented
Push and email reminders needed to reflect the same canonical visit state everywhere.
Care plans needed to travel
Post-visit summaries had to remain accessible and useful even when connectivity was limited.
The Real Cost
The real cost was lost trust at the exact moment patients needed reliability.
A telehealth journey breaks down quickly when the schedule, reminder, or visit state differs by device.
No-shows are not only a scheduling issue; they create wasted provider time and lower care continuity.
When video fails late, support teams inherit stress that better preflight checks could prevent.
What We Did
We unified the patient and visit model first.
We introduced shared auth and profiles across web and native clients, hardened the video visit flow with device capability checks, orchestrated push and email reminders, and added post-visit care plans with offline-friendly summaries.
The build focused on reliable visit state, resilient media paths, and consistent patient communication across channels.
The Result
Completed visits increased 18% and no-shows fell 22% across a consistent web, iOS, and Android experience.
