When to Send It
Trigger
A documented treatment is completed and the licensed provider assigns the correct approved aftercare version.
Timing
Send immediately after treatment closeout and aftercare-version assignment.
Frequency
Send once per treatment event; corrections require a clearly versioned replacement.

Symptoms, adverse events, urgent concerns, and clinical questions must leave marketing automation for the approved clinical process.

Before You Use This Email
Why This Approach Works
Platform Setup Steps
Trigger
A documented treatment is completed and the licensed provider assigns the correct approved aftercare version.
Segment
Clients with a completed documented treatment and assigned aftercare version, excluding identity uncertainty, voided visits, and unresolved record mismatches.
Delay
Send immediately after treatment closeout and aftercare-version assignment.
Reply owner: Clinical coordinator responsible for aftercare delivery, access verification, adverse-event routing, and provider escalation.
- Verify treatment closeout, client identity, provider, aftercare version, secure permissions, and escalation paths.
- Send the minimum-necessary wrapper and create an access-confirmation task.
- Route every symptom, adverse event, record mismatch, or clinical question to the approved clinical process.
Stop conditions
- Stop ordinary reminders on confirmed access, replacement instructions, provider contact, or active adverse-event handling.
- Stop if the assigned version, provider, treatment record, or contact path changes.
- Immediately exit automation for reported symptoms, adverse events, urgent concerns, or suspected record mismatch.
- Stop automation when a staff member begins active handling or a direct conversation.
Mistakes To Avoid
- Using one aftercare list for every procedure
Instructions and risks vary by treatment, product, device, site, and patient.
Use instead: Assign and deliver the exact approved version from the clinical record.
- Sending from an unmonitored marketing inbox
A client may report an adverse event in reply.
Use instead: Use a monitored clinical owner and defined urgent path.
Sequence Placement
Use as a transactional clinical-service message immediately after treatment. Access confirmation closes delivery; a replacement version supersedes it; symptoms or adverse events transfer to clinical handling.
