2. When the link is clicked, Web Sched Recall opens in a browser.
   
   • Select a Provider: If patients are allowed to select a provider, and more than one provider has available openings, the patient can select a provider from the dropdown.
   • Calendar: By default, the first dates with available time slots show, based on criteria selected in Web Sched Recall. Select a date and available appointment times show. Select the desired appointment time.
   • Notify me if an earlier appointment time becomes available: (optional) Check to have the office notify patient about earlier appointments. This marks the appointment as ASAP and shows on the ASAP List.
3. Click Finalize Appt.
4. A confirmation message shows. To confirm, click Yes. To return to the list of available dates, click No.
