What is Patient Scheduling Software?

Automated. Efficient. Friendly.

A system that lets your patients self-book directly into your EMR schedule, instead of staff manually booking the patients. This allows patients to book around the clock, contributing easier access to care and practice growth if desired.

  • Medical practices save up to 40% per appointment in admin costs

  • Prevent schedule gaps (patients will fill them automatically)

  • Doctors see 6 more patients per day (in combination with other tools)

  • Improves patient experience (improves online reviews by ~1 star)

These benefits can be obtained if patient scheduling software is designed and used effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Patient Scheduling Software FAQ

Self scheduled appointments are have a risk of no-show just like manually booked ones. However, there are tactics you can use to reduce no-show rates to near zero. 1. [Automated reminders](https://cortico.health/features/appointment/) - Most clinics do have this in place, but I have to mention it here as the first step to address no-show rates for any appointments (manual or automatically booked) 2. Advertise no-show fees (during booking). Advertising a no-show fee at the time the patient books online does wonders to motivate them (by setting a social contract) they agreed to. It's often the social pressure and inconvenience of being chased for a no-show fee, as well as understanding the financial impetus for the clinic that motivates patient behaviour here as well. 3. Just let them cancel. If patients can't make an appointment, the online reminder system should encourage them to cancel rather than no-show. If the patient can cancel easily, they'll do so and another patient will fill their spot quickly (if you have automated online booking) 4. Automate no-show fee enforcement. When patient schedule their appointment, Cortico can automatically block them from booking if they have a pending no-show fee. This filters out the worst actors. We recommend this be done only for cases where the above actions don't work, since it may restrict patient access to care (so, should be reserved for repeat offenders).
