This page describes the SMS program operated by Bagheera AI LLC on behalf of dental practice customers, the consent process, sample messages, and how patients can opt out.
Every patient who receives a message from the Treatment Chaser has signed their dental practice’s intake form, opting in to SMS communications, on paper or digitally.
The consent checkbox is unchecked by default. Patients affirmatively check the box and sign the form. Practices retain the signed form as proof of consent for at least four (4) years.
The Bagheera AI Treatment Chaser sends one category of message: follow-ups about recommended dental treatment that the patient discussed with their dentist but has not yet scheduled. Every message identifies the sending practice by name and includes opt-out instructions.
Patients can opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying any of the following keywords to any message they have received:
Opt-outs are permanent and immediate. Once received, the patient’s mobile number is added to an immutable opt-out list and will not receive any further messages from the practice through the Bagheera AI platform.
