The only costs are those associated with the scan itself, paid for by the patient. There is no charge to you from either scan.com or WriteUpp for using the integration.
At the moment, the scan.com centres are mainly located in the UK although plans are in place to expand the network across Europe and the USA. You can search for an available scan location here.
Unfortunately it’s not possible to update those details once you've connected to scan.com. You can disconnect and reconnect with a new email address if these details need to be changed.
No, once an appointment has been booked for the scan, then you can no longer cancel the referral from within WriteUpp. The patient will have to cancel the appointment and then you can delete the referral form from within WriteUpp using the bin icon at the bottom of the page, if you wish.
Once a patient has paid for a scan, they’ll need to contact scan.com directly to cancel it. This can be done by email on info@uk.scan.com or via phone on +44 (0) 1277 674 889.
No, but if the patient has not paid online for their scan yet, you can cancel the referral from WriteUpp and create a new one.
Some centres won’t allow clients to book directly online. If a client selects one of these centres, they’ll be asked to make payment online and will then be contacted directly to arrange an appointment. This will result in the location of the scan being available before the date/time information. This will be added once the date/time has been confirmed.
Once you’ve sent the referral, we’ll save a copy of it to the Files tab of the patient summary so you’ve got a record of it. If you open the saved referral, you’ll see both the current status of the scan and a booking history to allow you to track the progress through to the report being returned.
We’re sorry to hear that there are no appointments available for your patient to book their scan. Please contact scan.com if there are any difficulties booking a scan through the scan.com portal.
