Smart Scheduling

There are an estimated 1.2 billion medical appointments each year in the United States alone. With consistently high demand and no-show rates ranging from five percent to 50 percent depending on the clinic, health systems across the country can benefit from more efficient scheduling and improved access to care. Smart Scheduling pioneers the application of data analytics to medical practices that takes the guesswork out of patient scheduling, enabling administrators to optimize daily schedules through intelligent overbooking, reduction in no-show rates, and improved provider productivity. Through partnerships with multiple leading medical record and practice management vendors, Smart Scheduling is deployed as either a standalone web application or integrated directly into the existing scheduling workflow. The software guides administrators to more efficient scheduling by identifying patients at-risk of missing appointments and provides additional contextual information targeted to each patient's behavior and particular needs.
