Clinic guide

To use inTusell in a clinic, create your account, pick the "Health & Clinics" industry and your clinic type, connect WhatsApp and Instagram and connect Google Calendar in My business › Channels › Calendar & Payment. The AI suggests free slots, books appointments and sends reminders 1 day and 2 hours before.

Who this is for

  • Clinics that work by appointment: dental, aesthetics, hair transplant, dietitians, vets and polyclinics
  • Teams that receive patient messages on WhatsApp or Instagram
  • Clinics that want reminders to reduce no-shows

Before you start

  • A phone running your business WhatsApp
  • A Google account and calendar for appointments
  • For Instagram: a Professional account linked to a Facebook Page

Sign up and the setup wizard

The wizard has three steps: Company, Channel and Ready. You can skip the channel step and finish it later in the panel.

  1. 1

    Create your account

    Sign up on intusell.com. Your account opens with a 14 day trial.

  2. 2

    Tell us about your company

    On the "Company" step enter your business name and pick "Health & Clinics" under "Industry". Add your website if you have one: the AI reads it to learn your products, prices and FAQs.

  3. 3

    Pick your clinic type

    Choose your clinic type: General clinic / polyclinic, dental clinic, aesthetics and medical beauty, hair transplant centre, pharmacy, dietitian and nutrition, or veterinary clinic. The AI’s instructions and pipeline follow it; you can change it later in My business › Business Info.

  4. 4

    Connect a channel or do it later

    On the "Channel" step pick WhatsApp, Instagram or Web chat. For WhatsApp click "Show the QR code" and scan it with the phone that runs your business WhatsApp; for Instagram click "Connect Instagram" and approve on Facebook; for web chat copy the one-line code (this also turns on your web chat) and paste it into your site. "I’ll connect later" moves on without a channel.

  5. 5

    Review how the AI will talk

    The "Ready" step shows the tone, the first message and the priorities of your AI. "Go to the dashboard" opens the panel; "Edit" opens the AI settings.

Connect your channels

  1. 1

    WhatsApp with QR

    Go to My business › Channels › Messaging Channels and click "Connect with QR". On your phone open WhatsApp › Settings › Linked devices › Link a device and scan the code. Your phone keeps working alongside the panel. The official WhatsApp line (Cloud API) opens after Meta approval; today QR is the way to connect.

    Let the AI book

    When a patient asks for an appointment, the AI suggests free slots and books the one the patient picks. It shows in the Appointments room and in your Google Calendar.

Reminders and no-shows

  1. 1

    Reminders go out on their own

    Patients get a reminder 1 day and 2 hours before the appointment. The 1 day message asks whether they will come, with 1 Yes, 2 Reschedule, 3 Cancel; the appointment is confirmed, rescheduled or cancelled from the reply.

  2. 2

    Mark who came

    After the appointment time, mark the patient as "Attended" or "No-show" in the Appointments room.

  3. 3

    New slots for no-shows

    When you mark a patient as "No-show", the AI offers them new free slots; if you mark it overnight (23:00-08:00) or your account is on the Free plan, no message goes out. An unmarked appointment turns into "No-show" on its own 2 hours after it ends; the message then only goes out if you marked at least one patient as "Attended" in the last 30 days, so a patient wrongly counted as missed does not get it.

Health and price rules

A clinic setup gives the AI instructions for health communication. Still, check its answers in AI Test.

  1. 1

    No diagnosis, no promised results

    The AI does not diagnose, does not make treatment decisions, does not guarantee results and does not make claims like "the best".

  2. 2

    Exact prices are set at the consultation

    Instead of an exact price the AI says the price is set at the consultation. You can add the price ranges you want to share to the knowledge base.

  3. 3

    Add your own rules

    Add rules specific to your clinic in My business › Instructions, for example topics where the patient should contact the clinic directly.

    The AI rules page

    Send a real message

    Follow your work in Appointments

    Choose how much the AI does

    In My business › Instructions › AI Settings, under "How it works", pick the AI mode: Intern (the default) sends replies itself and asks you before a cancellation or refund and when it does not know the answer; Senior also handles cancellations and refunds; Full approval waits for your approval before every reply (email has no approval queue, so the AI does not reply there).

    Take over a single conversation

    Inside a conversation you can switch it to Live, Approval, Shadow or Paused. The change applies to that conversation only.

Things to keep in mind

  • Reminders, confirmation questions and no-show messages are on for every clinic on the trial and on paid plans; there is no separate switch to turn them off. On the Free plan they are not sent to patients and your settings stay.
  • Mark a patient who did not come as "No-show" no later than 2 hours after the appointment ends. For unmarked appointments the message only goes out if at least one patient was marked as attended in the last 30 days.
  • The health rules are instructions to the AI; check sensitive answers in AI Test and add your own rules when needed.
  • In a clinic the menu shows Services instead of Products; add your services under My business › Knowledge.

Common problems and fixes

Problem: The AI does not suggest free slots.
Fix: Check the Google Calendar connection on Calendar & Payment and the working hours in "Manage Appointment Settings".
Problem: A patient who missed an appointment got no message.
Fix: Check that you marked the patient as "No-show" no later than 2 hours after the appointment ended; a mark made overnight (23:00-08:00) sends no message. For unmarked appointments the message needs at least one patient marked as attended in the last 30 days. It is also not sent if your account is on the Free plan, if the conversation was handed to your team, or if the AI is paused in that conversation or muted for the contact.
Problem: The patient did not see the privacy note in the first message.
Fix: Check in Legal notices that the first-contact note is on and that you added your own page address.
Problem: Instagram messages are not arriving.
Fix: Check that the Instagram account is Professional and linked to your Facebook Page; use the "Reconnect" link on Messaging Channels.

Frequently asked questions

Does the AI diagnose patients?

No. A clinic setup instructs the AI not to diagnose, not to make treatment decisions and not to promise results.

When do reminders go out?

1 day and 2 hours before the appointment. The 1 day message asks the patient whether they will come.

Does the AI give prices?

Instead of an exact price it says the price is set at the consultation. You can add price ranges to the knowledge base.

Where do I add my privacy link?

In My business › Business Info › Legal notices.

Can I change my clinic type later?

Yes. You can change the industry and clinic type in My business › Business Info.
