Post-Service Follow-Up & Reviews for Bariatric Surgery Practices

{"faqs":[{"answer":"All outreach operates under a signed Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with HIPAA-compliant workflows. We follow TCPA and A2P 10DLC regulations for calling and texting. Patient data is used only for approved campaigns, opt-outs are honored immediately, and explicit consent is collected at every booking touchpoint.","question":"How does CallMyCustomers handle HIPAA compliance for bariatric patient outreach?"},{"answer":"Yes. During the free list review, we segment by procedure type, surgery date (30 days / 6 months / 12+ months), milestone status, and engagement history. This lets us tailor post-op check-ins, review requests, and referral prompts to each patient's clinical journey — so a sleeve patient at 6 months gets different outreach than a RYGB patient at 18 months.","question":"Can you segment our patient list by surgical procedure (RYGB vs. sleeve vs. revision) and time since surgery?"},{"answer":"All replies route directly into your existing booking workflow — whether that's your EHR scheduling, practice management system, or front desk process. Our team handles initial qualification and booking confirmations; no-show follow-up is included. You never log into a new platform.","question":"What happens when a patient responds to a review request or follow-up call?"},{"answer":"Post-Service Follow-Up & Reviews campaigns typically launch within 2 weeks of list approval. First review requests go out immediately; replies and booked follow-ups often appear within the first week. The full campaign cycle runs 2–4 weeks, with quarterly re-engagement waves to maintain momentum.","question":"How long before we see reviews and booked appointments from the campaign?"},{"answer":"Those are self-serve software tools your staff must learn, configure, and run daily. CallMyCustomers is a done-for-you service: we plan, write, approve with you, execute, and manage the entire campaign. No software seats, no training, no ongoing platform fees — just a flat setup fee and volume-based minutes. Real humans make judgment calls on complex patient responses; automation handles scale.","question":"How is this different from using a patient engagement platform like Solutionreach or NexHealth?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free List Review & Segmentation","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Upload your patient list (EHR export, CRM, spreadsheet).
