Requires Halaxy credits
When you send one-way SMS reminders to your patients, your default sender name appears as Halaxy. If you want to set this to your group practice or to a practitioner's name instead, you can set an SMS custom name. This can help improve appointment attendance rates in your practice.
An SMS custom name requires a monthly subscription and costs 50 credits per month. You can cancel your subscription any time.
Tip
Your SMS custom name is free if you reach the Silver, Gold or Platinum payment bands and remain within these bands.
