Patient reminders is not automatic. Have you gone to Misc > BatchCom?

Thanks for your response, much appreciated. How do I configure Batch.com to work?

I spent 20 minutes looking for documentation on how to use it. I could not find anything. You will just have to play around with it to get it to work.

The only thing I know for sure is that it references to the calendar. It searches the calendar for appointments to send notifications to.
