What it does

Guided issue categories

Patients choose the problem type and provide information matched to that category.

Photo requirements

Each issue pathway can request the photos the clinician needs to assess the situation.

Actionable records

Submissions create structured tasks or records rather than unstructured inbox noise.

Why practices use it

Issue handling becomes messy when every patient sends a different message with different information. A triage engine creates a consistent front door for patient problems.

Faster prioritisation

Teams can see what type of issue has been submitted and what evidence is available.

Less phone pressure

Patients have a guided route for common problems before calling the practice.

Better clinician context

Photos and structured answers arrive together for review.

Consistent patient support

Common issues follow the same pathway across clinicians and locations.

Where it fits in practice

A triage engine is useful when practices need a safer, clearer way to collect information about patient issues before deciding whether the patient needs advice, photos, a routine appointment or urgent attention.

Broken brace or wire concerns

Guide patients to provide the problem type, symptoms and photos before the team decides what happens next.

Aligner or retainer fitting issues

Collect structured context when patients report trays, retainers or appliances not fitting as expected.

Pre-treatment enquiry routing

Route people who are not yet active patients toward assessment or treatment information when appropriate.

Multi-location support consistency

Use the same issue categories and photo requirements across branches or clinician teams.

Can categories request different photos?

Yes. The triage model is designed around category-specific information and photo requirements so the practice receives more useful context.

How does triage reduce phone pressure?
