Spruce Health Features
Secure Messaging
The software provides secure messaging for healthcare teams, allowing users to send encrypted messages, share files, and audio notes while maintaining HIPAA and SOC 2 compliance. This ensures that patient communications remain private, easily trackable, and accessible within a centralized platform, supporting efficient care coordination.
Video Calling
The platform enables secure video calls for virtual patient visits. Healthcare providers can conduct telemedicine appointments, screen patients with clinical questionnaires, and maintain confidential video consultations. This functionality allows teams to deliver care remotely while documenting interactions accurately and ensuring continuity of treatment.
SMS Texting
Spruce Health supports two-way SMS texting, enabling providers to communicate directly with patients via mobile devices. The software allows scheduled messages, automated alerts, and reminders, helping practices reduce missed appointments, improve patient engagement, and maintain secure communication without manual follow-ups.
Business Phone
The software includes a business phone system with voicemail transcription, call routing, and multiple lines. Teams can manage incoming calls efficiently, assign lines to providers, and document interactions automatically, enhancing patient communication and reducing administrative workload across the practice.
Auto-Replies
The platform allows automated replies for messages and calls, including out-of-office responses, scheduled messages, and urgent escalations. By automating routine communications, healthcare teams can maintain timely patient interactions, reduce response delays, and streamline administrative tasks while ensuring compliance and accuracy.
Internal Notes
Spruce Health enables private internal notes within patient conversations, allowing team members to collaborate securely. Providers can document observations, coordinate tasks, and track follow-ups without exposing sensitive information to patients. This helps improve workflow transparency and enhance team-based care efficiency.

“pretty awkward interface”
Pros
It covers the functionality you'd expect and you can likely handle whatever you need while staying compliant. The interface can feel a bit complex at times though. Something as simple as editing a person's contact info from the SMS screen can take quite a few clicks.
Cons
The interface can be awkward at times and simple tasks often take more steps than they should. For example searching a number to check whether you've had previous conversations and then creating a call takes several clicks and you cannot just place a call to the number you already searched.
