Every call and text goes out with lawful consent and do-not-call scrubbing: family inquiries from your website, phone or referral partners are called back within your target, taken through a short needs conversation, and booked for an RN assessment; referral sources who agreed to a relationship or requested information are followed up and booked for a visit with your community liaison, with your materials sent ahead. The setter is HIPAA-trained and works under a BAA because inquiries contain health information. Purchased lists are never used. Every conversation is logged in your CRM or agency software with source and outcome, and the daily report shows inquiries called, assessments booked and referral visits set, so you can see which sources produce clients that start care. Named setter, backup, team lead from the healthcare desk. Plain definition ## What is an appointment setting service? An appointment setting service is outsourced outbound work where trained setters contact prospects by phone, email and message, qualify them against agreed criteria and book a meeting for your sales team. Good services work from consented or lawfully sourced lists, scrub against do-not-call registers, follow a script you approve and hand over a calendar booking with notes, so the rep walks into a conversation that has already started. ## What tasks does appointment setting cover for home care and NEMT agencies? - Call back family inquiries within your target with lawful consent - Run a short needs conversation and book the RN assessment - Follow up referral sources who requested information and book liaison visits - Send your agency materials ahead of each referral visit - Confirm assessments and visits the day before - Scrub every outbound list against do-not-call registries before a shift - Log every conversation with source and outcome in your CRM - Report inquiries, assessments booked and referral visits set daily ## The KPI that matters here Assessments booked per family inquiry and referral source visits set per month, reported by source so you can see which relationships produce starts of care. ## What rules does appointment setting follow for home care & NEMT? 1. **HIPAA and the BAA.** Client and member information is protected health information. Every engagement runs under a business associate agreement, staff are HIPAA-trained before they see a care plan or a trip, access is minimum necessary, and breach notification follows the HHS Office for Civil Rights rules. 2. **EVV under the 21st Century Cures Act.** Medicaid-funded personal care and home health visits must be verified electronically under the Cures Act, enforced by CMS through each state's aggregator. Assistants work exceptions in your EVV system daily so visits are complete, verified and billable, and never alter a caregiver's recorded times without a documented reason and your approval. 3. **No clinical decisions.** Assistants schedule, coordinate and relay. Changes to a care plan, a client's condition, a fall, a medication question or anything clinical goes to your RN supervisor or on-call nurse by the protocol your clinical lead signs, in line with state home care licensing rules. 4. **TCPA for shift and trip messages.** Shift offers, schedule confirmations and trip reminders go by text and call only with consent from caregivers, clients and members, inside calling hours, with opt-out wording, under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act enforced by the FCC. ## Home care & NEMT software we work in - [AxisCare](https://assistbpo.com/software/axiscare/) - [RingCentral](https://assistbpo.com/software/ringcentral/) - [QuickBooks Online](https://assistbpo.com/software/quickbooks-online/) - [Google Workspace](https://assistbpo.com/software/google-workspace/) Also in use - WellSky Personal Care - AlayaCare - RouteGenie - Broker portals (ModivCare, MTM) [See all 80 tools we work in](https://assistbpo.com/software/) ## More for home care and NEMT agencies Other services for home care & NEMT - [CRM management](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/crm-management/) - [Social media assistant](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/social-media-virtual-assistant/) - [After-hours answering](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/after-hours-answering/) - [Client intake](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/client-intake/) - [Virtual assistant](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/virtual-assistant/) - [Virtual receptionist](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/virtual-receptionist/) - [The home care & NEMT pod](https://assistbpo.com/industries/home-care-nemt/) Appointment setting in other industries - [Trades & home services](https://assistbpo.com/industries/trades-home-services/appointment-setting/) - [Transportation & logistics](https://assistbpo.com/industries/transportation-logistics/appointment-setting/) - [Hospitality, restaurants & travel](https://assistbpo.com/industries/hospitality/appointment-setting/) - [Insurance agencies](https://assistbpo.com/industries/insurance/appointment-setting/) - [The full appointment setting page](https://assistbpo.com/services/appointment-setting/) ## Frequently asked questions ### Is calling families about care allowed? Yes, when they asked to be contacted: an inquiry through your website, a call to your line, or a referral from a partner who told them you would call. The setter calls back with that consent, inside calling hours, and stops at the first request not to call. Information shared during the call is health information and is handled under the BAA. We never call purchased lists of seniors or families. ### How does referral source outreach work? Discharge planners, case managers, facility admissions staff and physician offices who requested information, met your liaison or accepted an introduction are followed up by phone and email with lawful consent and do-not-call scrubbing, offered a visit or a call with your liaison, and sent your materials. Contacts are logged in your CRM with the relationship stage. Outreach to sources with no prior contact is limited to email with unsubscribe wording under CAN-SPAM. ### What does the assessment booking include? A calendar entry for your RN with the prospective client's name, address, contact person, services requested, payer source, mobility and safety notes, and any urgency such as a hospital discharge date, plus the CRM link. The setter confirms with the family the day before, sends any pre-assessment information you provide, and tells the intake specialist so the client record can be started. No-shows are rebooked rather than dropped. Next step ## Your desk, staffed. Wherever you are. Tell us what is overloaded.
