Who this is for in Texas
For Texas providers of public and community care
In Texas, public health is delivered through local and county health departments, public hospital districts and community health centers. These organizations serve patients across several sites, and many patients speak Spanish. Qmatic supports patient access at the front desk, operations behind it and the IT work that connects them.
- Local and county health departments running public clinics
- Public hospital districts with outpatient departments and labs, and community health centers
- Large metro areas such as Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, San Antonio and Austin, with multi-site, high-load clinic networks
- Operations and IT leaders connecting scheduling and clinical systems

Mixed arrivals, one desk
Scheduled patients, drop-ins and late arrivals all need a place in the sequence.
Long trips for a missed visit
Texas has long distances between clinics in rural areas.
Separate systems for staff
When queue tools sit apart from the HIS/EHR, staff re-enter data and switch screens.
How the solution works
From booking to the consultation room
Qmatic links appointment data, arrival and the clinic's own systems so patients and staff share the same picture.
- Book or drop in: Patients book online and receive reminders, or arrive without an appointment.
- Check in without touching a screen: Patients use a link on their smartphone, a kiosk or reception.
- Move through each step: Journey management routes patients between registration, lab and consultation.
- Treat and learn: Staff call patients from one list, and dashboards and surveys show how the clinic is doing.
Patient check-in

HIS/EHR integration
