The Price You Pay for Missed Appointments
$24.00
|
Too often,
I’ve observed that staff members are unconcerned or even feel a sense of relief when a patient doesn’t show up,
as if it gives the employees of a busy practice a chance to catch their breath. Then there’s the doctor that simply shrugs his or her shoulders and says,
“Now maybe I’ll get out of the office on time.� Take heed,
a missed appointment is not a good thing,
ever. And missed appointments should not be taken lightly. There’s a big price for the “no show� or the 11th-hour cancellation. It kills efficiency,
and the associated costs are staggering.
