For medical, dental & clinical offices

A waiting-room billboard for calmer, informed patients.

Digital signage for healthcare shows patient education, general wait-time messages, wayfinding, hours, and practice updates on any TV in a medical, dental, vet, or outpatient office. It’s built for public-information signage — never PHI — runs in a browser, starts at $7.95 a month, and comes with a 14-day trial. BAA on request.

Wait status, wayfinding, education, hours, insurance — calm waiting-room screens that respect privacy and cut front-desk questions.

From $7.95/mo • No credit card • No PHI displayed • BAA available

Where it lives in your office

From the front door to the exam-room hallway

Wait Times

A simple “on time” or “about 15 minutes behind.” Front desk updates it once — no patient names, just calmer expectations.

Wayfinding

Point patients to the right suite, lab, or restroom — a lifesaver in multi-suite buildings and multi-wing campuses.

Patient Education

Flu-season tips, vaccine reminders, hand-washing, allergy season, healthy habits — general awareness, never clinical advice.

Office Information

Hours, holiday closures, who’s in today, insurance accepted, new-patient forms, telehealth how-to.

Practice Updates

New providers, new services, telehealth, portal sign-ups, and gentle “please update your insurance” nudges.

Privacy Reminders

“Please give space at the front desk,” mask policy, distancing cues — quiet reminders that keep the room considerate.

A note on HIPAA & PHI

Local Billboards is built for waiting-area and public-information signage — not protected health information. Don’t put patient names, appointment details, or any PHI on a public screen.

For education, office info, wayfinding, and general flow status (“on time” / “15-min delay”), it fits perfectly — no HIPAA worries.

Healthcare FAQ

What medical offices ask us most

Is Local Billboards HIPAA compliant?

It’s built for waiting-area and public-information signage, not PHI — so no patient names or appointment details. For education, office info, and wayfinding, there are no HIPAA concerns. BAA on request for Enterprise customers.

Can it show estimated wait times?

Yes — general status like “on time” or “about 15 minutes behind,” updated from the front desk. Nothing patient-specific, just overall flow.

What kind of patient education content can we show?

General awareness — flu-season reminders, hand-washing, vaccine info, healthy habits — always educational, never patient-specific advice. You can also feature your own services and providers.

Different content in waiting room vs exam rooms?

Yes. Sort screens into zones — main waiting area, pediatric corner, exam rooms, check-in. Bronze runs 2, Gold 20, Enterprise 100.

What does it cost for a small practice?

$7.95/mo on Bronze covers 2 displays — just right for a waiting room and lobby. No per-screen fees. See all plans →

Does this work for dental, veterinary, chiropractic, PT clinics?

Yes — dental (oral-health tips), vet (pet wellness, vaccine schedules), chiropractic (mobility), PT (exercise demos, recovery), urgent care (wait status), and most specialty offices.

Do you offer a Business Associate Agreement (BAA)?

Yes, for Enterprise on request. A BAA only matters if you handle or store PHI — and since this is public-information signage, most practices won’t need one. Contact us if your compliance team asks for it.

How does this compare to paper handouts and brochures?

Brochures run $0.50-3 each plus design, and they need restocking — 100 a week is $200-1,200/mo. A digital billboard is a flat $7.95-79.95/mo with instant updates, and waiting-room TVs actually get watched.

What happens if WiFi drops in the waiting room?

Every screen keeps a local copy. If the WiFi drops mid-day, education, wayfinding, and office info keep playing the last saved version, then re-sync on their own.

How much training does my front-desk staff need?

Most front-desk staff are updating screens within 30 minutes of signing up. Templates handle the layout; staff just fill in office info and education topics. A 15-minute video walkthrough and email/chat support are included.

What is the best digital signage software for medical offices?

The right one handles waiting-room education, general wait status (no PHI), wayfinding, and office info — with privacy in mind. Local Billboards has run medical, dental, and clinical screens since 2003 from $7.95/mo with a 14-day trial. BAA on request for Enterprise.
