# How can you view last-minute communication sent to your patients?

## Do you want to quickly know whether a patient has received, opened, or confirmed a last-minute invitation?

With the **Last-Minute Communication Timeline**, you get a clear overview of the full communication flow at a glance. This helps you work more efficiently and avoid unnecessary follow-up.

### 👀 Where can you find the communication timeline?

Follow these steps:

1. Go to the **Last-Minute** module.
2. Open one of the following tabs:
   
     - **Open**
     - **Booked**
     - **Cancelled**
     - **Expired**
3. Click on a **patient** in the list.
4. The **communication timeline** will automatically appear.

You can immediately see how the communication has progressed.

### ⚙️ What is the Last-Minute Communication Timeline?

The Communication Timeline shows the complete communication history for each last-minute appointment.

For each patient, you can see:

- When the message was sent
- Through which channel it was sent
- Whether the message was delivered
- Whether the patient opened the message
- Whether the patient took action (confirmed or cancelled)
- Which exact communication was sent

This gives you a clear view of the entire journey: from the first invitation to the final action.

### 🎨 What do the colors mean?

The colors indicate the status of each message:

- 🔵 **Blue**: Message delivered
- 🟣 **Purple**: Message opened
- 🟢 **Green**: Patient took action
- 🔴 **Red**: Message not delivered

This allows you to understand the situation at a glance.

### ✅ Why is this important for your practice?

With last-minute appointments, every minute counts. Thanks to the timeline:

- You immediately see whether a patient has responded
- You understand why a slot was filled or not
- You avoid unnecessary phone calls or manual follow-up
