WhatsApp for healthcare: patient communication, appointments and reminders
Healthcare providers use WhatsApp to reach patients, remind them of appointments, and follow up — on the channel patients already open. Morasel brings that communication together with scheduling in one place.
Why WhatsApp for healthcare
Many clinics use WhatsApp for appointment confirmations, reminders and patient questions because it is already part of their patients' everyday communication. Messages go out from the practice's recognised number, using approved templates, and can include opt-in health-awareness messages. Morasel is built on the WhatsApp Business Platform and adds scheduling, patient records and campaigns on top of that communication. If you run a clinic, Morasel for Clinics is the product built for you.

Frequently asked questions
What is WhatsApp for healthcare?
Using the WhatsApp Business Platform to communicate with patients — appointment confirmations and reminders, answering questions, and opt-in awareness messages — instead of relying on calls and email alone.
How is this different from the clinics page?
This page explains WhatsApp for healthcare broadly, while Morasel for Clinics is the dedicated commercial product for running a clinic with scheduling, reminders and more.
Is Morasel HIPAA compliant or a medical device?
No. Morasel is a communication and scheduling platform, not a medical device, and makes no HIPAA-compliance claim. The provider remains responsible for consent and handling patient information under applicable law.
Are messages sent from the practice's own number?
Yes. The provider connects its own WhatsApp Business number, so patients still recognise it, and outbound messages use approved templates.
