✦ Two-Way Texting

Two-way patient textingfrom the number they already call

A shared team inbox on your practice line — with missed-call text-back, and an AI that can answer the routine ones and book.

Get started

Your number, textable

Patients text the same number they call. Your whole team sees and answers from one shared inbox.

AI answers first

Hours, directions, pricing, “can I book?” — the AI handles routine asks instantly and hands off the rest.

Missed-call text back

Every missed call triggers an instant text, so the patient who could not reach you does not call your competitor.

Why medical practices need a real inbox, not iMessage

Patients already text everyone else. They will not download a portal app to ask if you take Aetna. If the reply comes from a staff member’s personal phone, you have a HIPAA problem and a conversation that leaves when she does.

KloudMD text-enables the number on the door. The whole team sees the thread. History sits on the patient profile next to the calls and the forms. Carrier registration (A2P) is included so the messages actually deliver.

KloudMD front desk inbox with a patient conversation

This page is the inbox. AI texting is the agent.

Do not confuse the two. This is the shared inbox and the practice number. AI texting is the agent that can auto-reply and book inside that inbox. You choose draft-only or auto-send.

HIPAA, consent, and PHI

We keep this HIPAA-conscious: consent tracking, access controls on the inbox, and a BAA. Templates ask the next question. They do not dump a chart into SMS. We will walk the policy on the demo.

How it works

Patient texts (or calls and misses)

The conversation opens in your team inbox with the patient’s history attached.

AI or staff responds

AI resolves the routine ones — including booking a real appointment — and flags what needs a human.

Everything is on the record

The full thread lives with the patient, searchable by anyone on the team who needs it.

Common questions

Can patients text our existing office number?

Yes. We text-enable the number they already know. Voice keeps working.

Who replies — AI or my staff?

Both. You choose. The AI can take routine questions and booking. Everything else lands in the team inbox with the thread attached.

Is texting patients HIPAA-compliant?

We sign a BAA, log access, and keep PHI in outbound messages to the minimum the workflow needs. This is not a consumer iMessage.

Will our texts get filtered?

The practice is registered for A2P. Unregistered 10DLC is why so many reminder tools silently fail.

Is this the same as KloudMD AI texting?

No. This page is the inbox and the number. AI texting is the agent that can auto-reply and book inside that inbox.
