Integrating Birdeye with drchrono
drchrono offers an integrated electronic health record (EHR), practice management and medical billing platform. The platform is available for users on iPhone, iPad, and web. Integrating drchrono with Birdeye will automate the process of sending out review requests to patients on a daily basis.
Birdeye allows you to fetch data from your CRM using a predefined trigger. Here is the supported trigger for drchrono:
Trigger Name |
Trigger Description |
Dr Chrono Appointments Trigger |
This trigger is used to fetch customer data based on the completed appointments. |
Appointment Writeback |
This trigger updates appointments created via the Birdeye widget (Writeback in PMS). It's required for scheduling. |
Contact Sync Trigger |

Once drchrono is integrated with Birdeye, Birdeye will pull patient data for the appointments that were completed on the previous day. Birdeye collects the first name, last name, email address and phone number of your patients and automatically sends them review requests.
Before the initial setup, the authorizing user for the drchrono account needs to grant FOUR required permissions for Birdeye to successfully fetch patient data.
How to grant permissions within your drchrono account
To grant permissions for data transfer, hover over the 'Account' tab on the panel and from the drop-down menu click on the 'Staff Permissions' button.
Once on the 'Permissions Administration' page, click on the 'Staff' section. Now, click on the 'View' button which appears next to the authorizing user.
To edit permissions for the authorizing user, click on the 'Edit Permissions' button on the bottom right.
Now, check the box which appears next to the four required permissions - Access Billing, Show Billing Tab, Access Clinical Notes, Manage Patients - and click on the 'Save Permissions' button to save your selection.
Once the required permissions have been granted, you can now proceed with initial integration setup. To set up the initial part of the integration with Birdeye, please reach out to the Birdeye technical support team @ 1-800-561-3357 Ext. 3 or email them at - support@birdeye.com. Birdeye technical support team would need your drchrono office ID to successfully setup the integration.
