- Date of First Visit Field: To track new patient performance, it’s important that the “Date of First Visit” field is correct. We realize you aren’t always able to add a new patient the same day, so you now can select the correct first visit date when adding them.

Subscriber tags allow you to easily group your subscribers so you can send targeted emails – a great internal marketing strategy that improves patient retention and encourages referrals!
You can send emails targeted to women with children. Or seniors. Or massage and acupuncture patients. The possibilities are endless!
Review our tagging support pages for more information.
A ‘Bounced’ status means an e-mail message is undelivered and has been returned to Perfect Patients. This can happen for many reasons. Check for incorrectly formatted addresses and typos. If you don’t find any mistakes, try obtaining a current email address from the patient.
To find your bounce list, click on the Subscribers tab, then change the dropdown menu found above your subscriber list from “Active Subscribers” to Bounced.
