The flagship product of accuRx is Chain SMS, a product used by GP practices to communicate with their patients. It is a self-service enterprise software product. Within 12 months following the launch of Chain SMS, in February 2018, it grew by referral from being used in 0% to 20% of GP practices in England.
Chain SMS is designed to support nurses, administration staff and practice managers etc., as well as GPs. Uses for Chain SMS include sending advice to patients, notifying a patient of normal results, and reminding them to book appointments. The communication is saved back to a patient's medical record .
