The Communication tab in Kasper provides an easy and convenient way to communicate with your patients. This feature streamlines patient communication and allows you to efficiently manage and respond to patient inquiries and messages, enhancing the overall patient experience.
Sending messages from Kasper

2- Sending a message to an existing patient:
To communicate with a specific patient via text message in Kasper:
Go to the Communication tab.

Start texting them from within the Kasper platform.
You can send your message by either clicking the "enter" key or the paper plane send button seen in the chat bar.
Note: Make sure the patient you want to text has their text permissions enabled on OpenDental. If this text permission is not enabled, your patient will not receive text messages sent from Kasper.

If the SMS is an automatic message it will show "Sent by Kasper" when the message is sent. If it was sent by a user, the user's name will be displayed.
