Quicklert Patient No-Shows Solution

Patient No-Shows

Reducing Patient No-Shows, Saving Revenue Streams and Improving Efficiencies

The Challenge

A busy surgeon's clinic manages back-to-back appointments all day, along with a surgical schedule for the doctor and a wait list of patients hoping to see the surgeon earlier than scheduled. Each day, at least 1-2 patients fail to show up for either an appointment or even worse, surgery. This results in a significant loss in revenue for the clinic. Sure, they appointment can be rescheduled, but that particular missed timeslot – and the associated revenue – can never be realized. Additionally, patient no-shows negatively impact productivity with office attempts to locate and reschedule the missing patient.

Patient No-Show is a key “Never Event” for hospitals, clinics and other healthcare organizations.

Benefits of Solving

checkReducing the number of no-shows will increase revenues for the medical practice

checkReminder actions 1-2 days prior to appointments allow patients to cancel ahead of time and open time slots can be filled with the wait list of patients

checkUtilizing a more automated system for patient reminders will increase staff productivity by eliminating the need for personnel to make these phone calls

checkSending a patient a personalized voice message via email or their patient client will reduce cancellations due to nervousness

checkNot requiring a portal – and its associated passwords – simplifies the patient experience

checkImproved communication will positively impact a patient's experience with the clinic, leading to more referrals and patient retention
