Chanty features for healthcare teams

Everything a clinic or practice needs to coordinate staff in one HIPAA-ready workspace: chat, calls, files, tasks and admin controls. Built for front desk, nurses, billing and practice managers, not for IT departments.

1

Team chat that replaces personal phones

  • Channels per location, department or shift. Reception, nursing, billing, the Tuesday evening shift: each gets its own space, with history new staff can read from day one.
  • Direct messages and group chats for the quick questions that used to go through WhatsApp or SMS.
  • Unlimited, searchable history on every plan. Find the supplier's number or last month's schedule change in seconds.
  • Announcements and pinned messages so the policy update or holiday roster stays on top, not buried under a hundred replies.
  • Mentions, reactions and threads keep answers next to questions.

Calls and voice notes for people on their feet

  • Audio and video calls with screen sharing: unlimited 1:1 calls on Free, unlimited group calls on Business.
  • Voice messages for staff who cannot stop to type between patients.
  • Call recording on Enterprise, with compliance settings your admins control.
  • Encrypted end to end of the pipe: signalling over TLS 1.2+, media over encrypted WebRTC.

Tasks that come out of conversations

  • Message to task in two clicks. "Order more gloves for room 2" becomes a task with an owner and a due date without leaving the chat.
  • Kanban board and task list for the practice manager to see what is open, who owns it and what is overdue.
  • Task comments and attachments keep the context with the job.
  • Teambook collects every task, conversation and pinned item in one place.

Files, procedures and previews in context

  • Share a photo, a PDF or a spreadsheet in the chat and open it there: images, PDF, video and Office documents preview inside the app.
  • Storage: 20 GB per team on Free, 20 GB per user on Business, custom on Enterprise; up to 1 GB per file.
  • Google Drive and 3,700+ integrations through the catalog, Zapier, Make and n8n, with any integration available on request.
  • Encrypted file storage. Integrations that touch PHI need their own BAA with that vendor.

Collaboration across locations and with vendors

  • Multi-location practices keep one workspace with a channel per site and shared channels for managers.
  • Guests for the billing company, the IT contractor or a locum, limited to selected conversations.
  • Roles with 120+ permission settings on Business: who can create channels, invite people, export data or delete messages.
  • Apps for every device: web, Windows, macOS, iOS and Android.

  • Retention from one minute to unlimited, set for the whole workspace or per conversation.
  • Audit trail of message reads, exports, permission changes, file downloads and admin actions.

Where Chanty fits

Chanty is internal staff communication. It sits next to your EHR, patient portal, scheduling and telehealth systems and does not replace them: no patient messaging, no clinical documentation, no urgent clinical alerting. That boundary is what keeps the setup simple and the BAA scope clear. See solutions by practice type for how a dental office, a home care agency or a multi-location clinic puts it together.
