Vello client communication

Help clients prepare before they arrive

A Vello reminder gives clients the information they need ahead of the visit.

Appointment confirmation

Clients confirm with one tap, and the status updates in Neo. Your team can see who is coming without calling through the schedule.

Pre-visit instructions

Fasting details, arrival instructions, and other appointment-specific information reach clients before the visit. They arrive knowing what to expect, with fewer questions to sort out at check-in.

Diagnostic recommendation

Clients see the recommendation and why it matters before the exam room conversation. The care team can start with an informed client instead of introducing the topic for the first time.

Fecal sample collection

A reminder and collection checklist tell clients what to bring and how to collect it. The sample gets collected at home instead of remembered in the lobby.

Digital forms

Clients complete visit-specific forms before they arrive. Completed forms attach to the applicable records in Neo.

Client questions and updates

Clients can reply with a question or visit-specific update before they arrive. The team manages the conversation from the Vello inbox inside Neo.

From the same reminder, clients can move into the Vello app or a password-free web portal to review recommended care, download vaccination history, request another appointment, complete forms, or view test results, without a call to the practice or a login to remember.

Questions about Vello for Neo

How do my clients access Vello?

Right from the link in an appointment or medical service reminder, by downloading the Vello app, or through a custom Vello link or QR code from your Vello settings. Clients are auto-authenticated through the Neo integration, so there is never a password to manage.

How does SMS writeback work with Neo?

All automated communications and text messages write back to the communications log and patient record. A started conversation logs as "Text Thread Initiated." Once marked done, "Text Thread Completed" writes back with the full content.

How long does it take to set up?

Setup is quick and requires minimal effort. Client and patient data pulls from Neo automatically, including contact information, appointment details, vaccination and prescription history. You can add customizations by appointment type and enable recommended care from there.
