The mechanics of turning a lead into a booked consultation.
Most hospital funnels lose 60–80% of leads between enquiry and consult. This guide collects the WhatsApp flows, IVR scripts, landing-page nudges and CRM automations that consistently fix that gap.
Six conversion levers
Each lever has a defined trigger, message, owner and benchmark lift.
Landing page nudges
Sticky consult CTA, doctor credibility band, urgency without fear, mobile-first form.
WhatsApp first-response
Templated WhatsApp reply within 90 seconds of enquiry — average lift: +28% to consult.
IVR + human handoff
Two-ring pickup, speciality-trained tele-counsellor, callback if missed within 7 minutes.
Consult-qualifier flow
5-question intake (condition, urgency, location, insurance) before booking the slot.
Reminder & no-show recovery
T-24h + T-2h reminders, plus a recovery WhatsApp for missed slots — typical +18% show-rate.
Post-consult follow-up
Care-plan nudges and review requests that lift repeat visits and Google reviews.
Benchmarks you can target
- Lead → Consult: lift from 18% to 30%+
- Show-up rate: lift from 62% to 80%+
- First-response time: < 90 seconds
- WhatsApp opt-in: > 85% of leads
- Google reviews per consult: > 35%
- Repeat-visit rate (6 months): > 22%
