VitalSkin Dermatology, a dermatology support organization that includes 19 affiliate locations across Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Missouri and 62 providers, serve over 93,000 patients annually. The dermatology support organization was looking for a new solution to help support its patient communication strategy at an enterprise level. Klara checked their most critical boxes, including supporting their existing practice workflows and interfacing with their EHR. Since implementing Klara, their affiliated locations have been able to book more appointments, reduce no-shows and save time¹ by decreasing phone tag.
