If multiple registrations are not allowed, how will I register the members of my family. I alone have a mobile phone in our family?

2009-12-22T02:09:00.000-08:00

You don't need multiple registrations for this.

If you are using SMS you can simply attach the name of the family member at the end of the SMS for appointment. Then the appointment will be in the name of the family member.

How Can It Help Doctors.....

2009-12-16T03:31:00.000-08:00

EatherWay will act as a Patient Flow Mangement System for the Doctors. It will give them absolute control over the time they see their patients, the time they spend with the patients and the time they wish to finish their day's work. This is made possible through storing in advance their consultation timings, their contact details and the average time slots they spend per patient within this system. It will be easily accessible for them to change it anytime if they need to. And it will be accessible for their patients too to book appointments with them. www.eatherway.com

How does a Doctor Subscribe to Eather network?

Doctors can subscribe by calling our solution consultants who will do the registration by obtaining necessary information from the Doctor. Doctors can also directly subscribe by signing up in this website. The web server captures details of the consultation timings, weekly holidays etc of the doctor. Doctors who are signed up with the network will be assigned a Unique ID. This Unique ID, known as Doctor ID, will be used for all subsequent transactions by their patients. The Doctor ID is a number.goto site

How does the doctor make changes to the initial settings?

Once registered, Doctors can use their web interface to make changes to Weekly Holidays, set random Holidays and Vacations. System will automatically prevent appointments for the days set as holidays.

Similarly Doctors can also keep some specific slots free of appointments for their other engagements; by selecting those slots and setting them as Blocked. The system will not provide appointments for these slots. If the time slots to be blocked have appointments which were already given, those patients will be notified by SMS if the notify option is enabled.

Doctors who are not regular users of internet can call EatherWay call centre and instruct our customer care agents to carry out any such configurations.

Eatherway - Patient Flow Management system

2009-12-16T03:15:00.000-08:00

EatherWay is a healthcare product that integrates the three communication mediums – Mobile Text Messages (SMS), Internet and normal Telephony enabling patients and doctors to communicate with each.
Developed by Cochin based company (Alignminds), EatherWay enables doctors and patients to communicate with each other using their platform.
Here is how it works:

The Doctor subscribes to EatherWay, either by registering online or with the help of solution specialist from the company.
The Patients also register with EatherWay, either online or by sending a mobile text message. This will enable them to book their appointments online, search for doctors etc. However, registration is not mandatory to fix appointments through SMS or Automated Telephone Appointment System.
Whenever appointment is needed the patient can book an appointment online or by sending a simple mobile text message or call our automated telephone appointment system. She receives the date, time and a token number by reply SMS. If the doctor is not available, next available dates are received by SMS.
If an appointment is to be cancelled the patient sends an SMS for cancelling the appointment and gets acknowledgement.
