An appointment with your doctor is just an SMS away. You no longer have to wait in long queues to meet your doctor. You can schedule an appointment and receive token numbers by just sending an SMS from your mobile phone.
The Kochi-based Alignminds Technologies has developed a software - ‘EatherWay’ - which will enable doctors and patients to communicate with each other 24x7 and efficiently manage their resource-time.
For doctors, it acts as a customisable patient flow management system and for patients, it serves as a multifaceted appointment scheduling system. EatherWay is an integration of three communication media - mobile text messages (SMS), Internet and normal telephony. It also acts as a Web site, a platform to receive and send text messages and an automated system to receive and respond to voice calls.
Most of the people I know are mostly the ones who just go to the doctor according to their convenience, very few people take a doctor's appointment and then visit the doctor. I think the concept is really good but it will take quite some time to see a success as all the doctors and patients need to understand and implement the take-appointment-then-visit approach.
I wish good luck to EatherWay.
