This feature is best used when you intend to redirect your stakeholders to an Awell Hosted Page, to complete a pending activity.
When directing your patients to your own proprietary apps, you can just embed a regular link. Not sure which integration type is right for you? - consult this page to learn more about the different options to let your patient and clinical stakeholders interact with Awell actionable activities.
Email/SMS
Embed an Awell Hosted Pages (AHP) link in your email or SMS communication, to you let your stakeholders immediately interact with their pending care flow activities.
How to insert an Awell Hosted Pages link - Email/SMS
Prerequisite: activate one of the Communication Extensions to enable the 'Send Email'/'Send SMS' actions - read more in this article.
Double click on the step where you want to Send the Email/SMS
Add "Send Email/SMS" action
Add the Awell Hosted Pages Link to your dynamic template data (in case of email), or straight into the body of your text message.
With the Email communication providers, you can use dynamic templates which will allow to have the link appear as a "click here" button, the CTA (call-to-action) of your message to redirect your stakeholder to the online message/form to complete.
Important notes
Before you dive in, let us clarify a couple of technicalities around the workings of the Awell Hosted Pages link:
To send an Awell Hosted Pages link over email/SMS, you'll need send the stakeholder's contact information (PII). If you'd like to avoid that, have a look at the channels mentioned below to leverage the API call action and/or Clinical Note to retrieve an Awell Hosted Pages link and take control over access on your end.
An Awell Hosted Pages link is tied to a stakeholder of your choice, meaning it identifies who can see the pending activities when they click on the URL sent over email and land on the Awell Hosted Page. It's up to the care flow designer to tie the link together with the stakeholder and it's next pending activities in the care flow. Example:
Send Email action to: "Patient"
Embed Awell Hosted Pages link for: "Patient"
Message/Form/Checklist action for: "Patient"
An Awell Hosted Pages link doesn't expire and is identical throughout the course of a care flow. Meaning if a stakeholder lands on the email and the associated link at a later time or mixes up the order of Email > Action, they will always go through their personal list of pending activities in the designed order.
Awell Hosted Pages links are unique and generated automatically when the activity is activated by the Awell orchestration engine.
When addressing multiple stakeholders with a single Awell Hosted Pages link, you'll not be able to trace back who has completed the action.
