Healthcare WhatsApp templates help clinics, dentists and pharmacies confirm appointments, send reminders, announce that prescriptions or results are ready and recall patients for check-ups. Most are Utility templates that deliver to US numbers. Keep medical details out of the message and direct patients to a secure portal.
Hi Stella, it's been about a year since your last check-up at Downtown Dental. Regular visits help catch problems early. Would you like us to find a time that works for you?

Categories follow Meta’s message template documentation; Meta assigns the final category when it reviews each template, and charges per its pricing documentation.
Don’t put diagnoses, test results or medication names in templates. Point patients to your secure portal or the front desk instead.
Collect explicit WhatsApp consent at intake and record it on the contact; Social Intents keeps an audit trail of consent changes.
Appointment and pickup messages are Utility and reach US patients; recall campaigns are Marketing and need SMS or another channel for US numbers.
Use neutral wording (“new results are available”) and never put diagnoses or test values in WhatsApp.
Get written consent for WhatsApp communication in the patient intake form and record it.
