Chief Medical Officer Dr. Marty Makary on how Sesame cuts out the middlemen and intermediaries to let you spend more time with patients, build new offerings, and earn 25% more per visit.
Patients pay upfront on the Sesame platform while booking their appointment. They can use their debit or credit card to make the purchase.
When do I get paid?
Providers are paid via direct deposit on a weekly basis.
How are patients charged if additional services are required?
If an additional service is required, you can charge the patient in your office the same way as any other self-paying patient. In the future, you will be able to process charges through Sesame.
How do I know if I get a booking?
Sesame sends an automated email whenever you receive a booking which includes the patient’s name, phone number and email address. Patients also receive an email confirmation as an appointment reminder.
What is the cancellation policy for patients?
Patients can cancel 24 hours before the appointment if their circumstances change. If a patient no-shows or cancels within 24 hours, they do not qualify for a refund but the provider still receives payment for the service.
How do I add or change my availability?
