Low Cost Mail for Flu Recalls - with Docmail

July 27, 2009 - PRLog -- As practices prepare to remind their vulnerable patients of the importance of receiving the annual flu vaccine, even more important this year with the rapid spread of swine flu,  Docmail has announced a special offer of just 23 pence per reminder letter – which includes printing, stationery and delivery. That’s a saving of 7p on postage alone over regular Second Class mail.  

This low-cost mail service allows customers to compile and send post direct from their PC.  The system allows you to securely upload a Word document and recipient list onto the online database, and the document is then printed, personalised, enclosed and posted by Docmail, with final mile delivery by Royal Mail.

Whilst the standard service starts from just 25 pence per single side letter, Docmail is offering GP practices a special 10% discount for flu jab recall mailings.  

Dave Broadway, managing director of CFH Total Document Management, creators of Docmail, says, “Docmail saves considerable time for the practice management team at what is, with the growing swine flu threat, an exceptionally busy time. We felt that since we are able to help, we should do so!

“Together with this additional cost saving which will ease already stretched budgets, this service will enable GPs to target their patients quickly and efficiently by post with news of flu vaccination appointments.”    

Recent research has shown that 82% of people still like to receive correspondence from their doctor by post.  The importance of appointment reminders was highlighted in the survey which found that 31% of those questioned would probably forget to attend their appointment if they did not receive a prompt.

Mail sent via Docmail is handled at CFH’s APACS accredited factory, which has security features designed to protect sensitive data for cheques and bank statements. The company’s scale of operations means it is able to offer this level of saving to GPs.

Practices who would like to take advantage of this offer can contact Docmail via http://www.cfhdocmail.com/practice.html; docmailsales@cfhdocmail.com
or telephone 01761 416311.
