Give patients reminder calls, smart texts, and emails to crush no-shows. Mend patient reminders use multiple touches to eliminate the possibility of your patients forgetting their appointments.
The average no-show rate is 23% across the globe. For a 10 provider practice, that equates to at least $857,808 in lost revenue annually. When it comes to medical appointment reminders, 90% of text messages get read within 3 minutes. Mend’s innovative appointment reminder service for doctors will text and email or email and call so that there are always multiple touches, eliminating the possibility of your patients forgetting their appointments.
We all lead busy lives and the single biggest reason why patients no-show is conflicts or other reasons why they are not able to make the scheduled appointment. Use Mend to make it easy for patients to modify their appointments 24/7/365. Patients will love the convenience, and you’ll receive instant revenue growth from the reduction in no-shows.
89% of patients surveyed said they are going to choose their healthcare organization based on conveniences like texting, self-scheduling, and rescheduling. Don’t let your competition figure this out first. Invest in a smart patient reminder system and reap the rewards.
Patient demographics and appointments are pulled automatically from your EHR. Mend sorts through your contact information and automatically sends patient appointment reminders with the day, date, time, address, provider, etc. Mend can look up phone numbers automatically to determine whether to send a text and email or a phone call and email.
If you make it easy for patients to modify their appointments, expect another 2-8% reduction in no-show rates. For a 30 provider practice averaging $74 per visit, that’s at least $560,000 in new revenue. The ROI is exponential for an appointment reminder application.
Mend connects effortlessly with all the major EHRs or those that support HL7, API, or SFTP. Mend can grab appointment types from the EHR and automatically send out doctor appointment reminders and even appropriate paperwork. Medical appointment reminders can include cancellations and reschedules, which can be set up to also update the master schedule in the EHR or PMS.
Less likely to no-show
Patient self-scheduling is now integrated, easy, and accounts for all the decisions staff needs to make to get the patient to the right provider, location, and appointment type. When patients can self-schedule, they are 50% less likely to no-show. This makes self-scheduling the perfect compliment to the Mend appointment reminder service for doctors.
