Appointment Reminders

Is your medical practice losing out?

Medical practices stand to lose a lot of money from patients who don’t show up for their appointments.

According to published medical research, the average no-show rate for doctor and dentist appointments in the United States is about 18%. If your practice schedules 60 patients a day that means 10 patients that don’t show up show up for their scheduled appointments.

One way to keep patients from missing their appointments is by sending patient postcard reminders. Sending postcards is still a very effective appointment reminder tool.

To keep your appointment reminder postcards from being mistaken for junk mail and thrown in the trash, buy postcards that have a distinctive design, a photo of your staff, or your logo if patients are familiar with it.
