I don’t think it’s possible now for patient reminders to be sent automatically. Has anyone already worked on this? Say every night at 00:00, all reminders are processed and sent without the need of an admin doing so.
go to databse and fill up the automatic notification table with the message you need to send to the patients as EMAIL
Set up a mail server like mercury.
Setup scheduled task (windows) or similar thing in Linux which will run the script cron_email_notification.php in the openemr/modules/sms_email_reminders at a specific time of the day say at 00;00
setup an appointment for the patient and your task scheduler will run the script at the time specified
the script will automatically send the message to the patient which you have prefilled in the automatic notification table in database via the mercury mail
If you want the Email sent to the patient to look a bit professional, then I have an attachment which I can share, which can be copied, pasted and edited in the automatic_notification table as per your clinic need for the email to look good (this table, can decode the html tags and codes, so makes the look of email great.)
