Why Didn’t My Patient Receive a Survey?

If a patient did not receive a survey after their visit, several factors may explain why.


The Survey May Not Have Been Sent Yet

Some organizations send surveys automatically through integrations with scheduling or EHR systems.

In these cases, surveys may be sent after a specific delay.


Contact Information May Be Missing

If a patient’s email address or phone number is not available, the survey cannot be delivered.


Contact Information May Be Incorrect

A survey may fail to send if:

  • The email address is invalid
  • The phone number is incomplete or incorrect

The Survey Was Accessed Through a Link or QR Code

Some practices collect surveys using QR codes or survey links instead of sending them directly.

In these cases, patients must open the survey themselves.
