Communication for patients is done via SMS, for At-home Teskit orders. Customers have the following options when setting this up:

  • Default - SMS communications are enabled.
  • Disable - All communications from Vital are disabled.

Each option has a different set of content and status changes, depending on what triggered them.

You can enable or disable SMS individually through the Vital Dashboard, under the Team Settings section.
