Appointment Statuses

You can update the status of both current and upcoming appointments from the calendar.

This feature is completely optional. If you find that this doesn’t suit your workflow and you choose not to use it, nothing in your appointment-making process will change.

To change an appointment’s status:

• Open the Calendar
• Select an appointment
• Click Change Status

• Choose the appropriate status, then select Change Status to confirm it

Appointments have five possible statuses:

• Scheduled: The default status for new appointments
• Checked In: The patient has arrived for their appointment
• Checked Out: The patient has completed the appointment and left
• Canceled: The patient canceled the appointment in advance
• No-show: The patient did not attend the appointment

Once a status is assigned, an icon will appear next to the appointment so you can see its status at a glance.

If you change an appointment to Canceled or No-show, you will be asked to provide a reason. When an appointment is marked Canceled, Atlas.md will stop sending reminders for that appointment.
