FAQ

Common questions

How do I manage what plays on clinic waiting room screens?

Create playlists in the Atracast dashboard with health education content, clinic service information, and appointment reminders. The content approval workflow ensures clinical sign-off before anything plays on any screen.

How does the content approval workflow protect clinical accuracy?

Editors submit content for review. Clinical leads receive a 6-digit code by email. Content only goes live after explicit verification - critical for ensuring all health messaging is reviewed before patients see it.

Can I push different content to different waiting rooms?

Yes. Each screen is registered as an individual device and can be assigned a different playlist or schedule. A children's waiting room can show different content than a specialist's waiting area or a general medicine waiting room.

How quickly can I update content across multiple clinic locations?

Within 30 seconds of approving a change. Real-time push (SSE) delivers updates to all registered screens simultaneously - useful for time-sensitive seasonal health campaigns across multiple locations.

Does it work if the waiting room loses internet connectivity?

Yes. The TV client caches the current playlist locally. Screens continue playing the last synced content during outages and re-sync automatically when connectivity returns.
