Suggested slot types to help you get the most from Recall, based on how practices see the biggest efficiency gains.
Why we suggest this
Fewer variations of slot types works better: it creates less calendar Tetris.
Cluster conditions wherever possible, so patients get truly holistic one-stop appointments.
Keep appointment durations low, this protects against unutilised clinical time in the event of DNAs.
The below is a suggestion and may vary depending on your clinical skill set, which we can discuss on your onboarding call.

Your recommended slot types
Why this approach? Fewer slot types means less calendar Tetris, clustering conditions gives patients one-stop reviews, and short durations protect clinical time if patients DNA.
We recommend creating these slot types in EMIS / S1, named as shown - we can discuss this on your onboarding call. You can add more conditions to a slot type if your staff are able to manage them, which creates more availability in your booking links.
