Add Teleo as an office location
Add Teleo as an additional office location in SimplePractice so that you can easily add your Teleo waiting room link to your automatic appointment reminder emails.
Steps
In SimplePractice, Create a new office location for Teleo.
Settings > My Practice
Select: “Locations”
Click “Add a location”
Name the location Teleo
Add your waiting room link as the first line of the address field
The second line of the address requires a state and zip, but you can change the city to whatever you like, such as, “click the above link to join your session”
Save the “Insurance Place of Service Code” as “10-Telehealth Provided in Patient's Home,” which will make sure your documents, such as superbills and insurance claims, reflect the correct Telehealth code.
When scheduling client sessions in SimplePractice, assign their location as Teleo
The appointment reminder email from Simple Practice automatically populates the Teleo link in the address field.
You can further edit your appointment reminders by going to Settings > Client Reminders❗Remember: SimplePractice only lets you have two email reminder templates: One SimplePractice specific telehealth reminder and one reminder for all other offices, which includes your new Teleo location. When making changes to your reminder templates, keep in mind the impact of your reminders on your other offices, if applicable.
Here is how my appointment reminder will look:
Fully Remote Practices
Fully remote practices that do not have any other offices in addition to SimplePractice Telehealth and Teleo, may not need the address macro in their automatic emails. You may want to edit your automatic reminder emails further, so that they just list the link to Teleo without the address format.
Hybrid Practices
Hybrid practices with in-person offices should not delete the address macro in their reminder email template. Doing so would also delete the address field for their in-person clients’ reminder emails.
Hybrid Practices can still link to your Teleo waiting room by inputting your Teleo link as your Teleo office address in location settings (listed in the step-by-step instructions above).
