Healthcare no-shows cost the United States $150 billion annually, yet most practices continue to use outdated scheduling methods that contribute to these losses. Meet Carolina—WaitingMed’s AI Front Desk Agent who’s revolutionizing healthcare scheduling one appointment at a time.
The Scheduling Problem Costing You Money
61% of patients skip appointments because scheduling is too hard. Missed calls, busy staff, and after-hours bookings can lead to significant financial losses. Since 40% of appointments happen outside business hours, old systems miss nearly half the revenue.
