Many practices have tried to reduce no-shows through automated text and phone call reminders; however, this only solves the issue of forgetfulness. By bringing care to wherever patients are, providers can reduce their no-show percentage rate and boost their revenue.
- Transportation is no longer an issue with virtual health – people can attend their appointments, even if they’re stuck at home or work
- Patients intimidated by medical office environments or worried someone will see them walking into certain practices can receive care from home
- Doctors can also fill in their no-shows at their physical practices by logging on to Digimed and signing into Doctor on Demand
- If people are feeling very ill, they don’t need to tire themselves further to attend their appointments
