Patient Feedback Software for Multi-Location Hospital Chains

Why a shared number breaks down across locations

A hospital chain that routes every location's feedback through one WhatsApp Business number ends up with a data quality problem before it has an insight problem: a low CSAT score or a grievance flag doesn't say which building it came from unless the setup separates that from the start. The fix isn't complicated — each location gets its own WhatsApp Business number and its own grievance contact — but it has to be decided at setup, not retrofitted after complaints start blending together in one inbox.

What per-location routing actually looks like

Each site's discharge messages go out from that site's own number, low scores or explicit complaints route to that site's own named staff member, and the monthly score report is per location first, with a group-wide average calculated only after, not instead of, the per-site numbers. This catches a single underperforming location early instead of letting it hide inside a chain-wide average that still looks fine.

What a good setup looks like for a hospital chain

The core WhatsApp flow — ask every discharged patient, alert staff on a low score within minutes, invite every patient to leave a Google review regardless of score — is identical at one location or ten. What changes for a chain is that each location needs its own number, its own contact, and its own monthly report, priced and quoted per site rather than one flat number covering the whole group.
