If you end your Telehealth (Open) schedule and scheduled arrangement , and will be exclusively servicing clients using an Adhoc schedule and rate only, you will still be required to continue seeing those Telehealth (Open) clients at the agreed Telehealth (Open) rate for their entirely of Telehealth appointments with you, regardless if ending the arrangement or not. As you will have many Telehealth (Open) clients remaining from your Telehealth (Open) arrangement and rate remaining, you will now need to use a specific method to rebook these clients to continue seeing them at the agreed upon Telehealth rate. If you do not wish to comply with this, then you will need to let us know so we can ensure all future Telehealth (Open) clients will be rescheduled to a different consultant.
Under your arrangement with Converge, following the termination of your Telehealth (Open) schedule and arrangement, you can either request Converge transfer these clients to another Converge consultant or you can continue seeing the client at your Telehealth (Open) rate until that client completes their session allocation or is no longer needing EAP services.
This guide will assist you with rebooking clients manually into your ended and blocked Telehealth (Open) schedule.
Step 1: Accessing Quick View actions
After logging in, your default home page is Quick View, which can also be accessed via the left menu, if needed.
Find the clients' last appointment on the Quick View page then click the green “Commence” button from the Appointment Actions column on the right side.
| Info |
|---|
The Quick View page is split into 3 sections - Appointments not started, Appointments in Progress and Appointments recently completed. Your clients' last appointment will be in the “Appointments Recently Completed” section or, if you haven’t yet commenced the last appointment, it will be in the “Appointments Not Started” section. |
Step 2: Review client session summary
Next, a pop-up will appear where you can review information before continuing.
Review the client session summary and the available session count.
Click “Continue to Rebook”

If the client does not have enough sessions remaining, you can request extra sessions. Find out more here https://convergeintl.atlassian.net/plugins/servlet/servicedesk/customer/confluence/shim/spaces/ALL/pages/108363819 |
Step 3: Select booking approach
During downtime of rebook with me, select Manual booking option.
| Note |
|---|
Note: Manual booking option overrides all rules for leave, break periods appointments already booked (this can cause double ups) and modality preferences. Ensure you review your calendar first for availability before manually inserting an appointment using manual booking. |
Step 4: Select a work schedule
After confirming a booking approach in the last step, the booking window will expand to show options for your rebooking.
Before continuing, click the “Expand to select / Update work schedule” banner (teal colored banner) to reveal your work schedule.
Next, select the work schedule which matches the desired appointment time with the displayed work schedule. Once you find the schedule to apply the appointment to, click the circle button to the right of the word “Available” to confirm the schedule.
| Info |
|---|
You may have more than one line of work schedules when you have multiple availability times over a week period. For example, you may work Monday’s and Tuesdays 09:00 to 14:00 (line 1) and Thursdays and Fridays 14:00 to 17:00 (line 2) which would be displayed in two availability lines. If the appointment was at 10:00 on Tuesday, you’d select that schedule for Monday and Tuesdays 09:00 to 14:00 (line 1). |
| Note |
|---|
If you also have a Rapid Response work schedule, these may be visible at this step. Make sure you only apply an appointment to the “Open” schedule (see image above) in the “Calendar Type” Column. |
Step 5: Complete booking details
Next, select the:
Modality,

Then, click the blue button “Review Bookings” to continue.
| Info |

For Video call appointments: For an automatic meeting link to be generated, select Teams (no login or app required to use - we will send you and the client the meeting link). Or select Zoom. If you select zoom, you’ll need to create a zoom meeting and email the client the meeting link seperately. |

After entering the details of the appointment, you’ll be able to review the appointment time, including a time zone conversion between you and the client.
