Extending a medical appointment can have different reasons. If a Practitioner needs more time to perform a procedure on a Patient, they are able to add 15 or 30+ minutes to the appointment, depending on the extra time required.

If you want to extend an Appointment, you can change the duration of the appointment on the booking screen.

• This user manual will start on the Diary screen.

• Double-click on the current appointment you wish to extend.

• The Add/Edit Booking screen will open.
• Click on the drop-down menu on the Duration field.
• Select the End time for the appointment that you are extending, for this example you shall extend the appointment to 11:15.

Please Note: After the duration was changed, the system will warn you that the duration exceeds the default duration for that specific Booking Type (Consultation - 15 minutes).

• Click on the Save button to save the changes made. 

• The appointment will now be extended over 3 timeslots. The next available booking is at 11:15.
