How we measure
Your schedule's defenses are a measurable system.
Ask any practice "do you send reminders?" and the answer is yes. Measured — which reminders, when, with what reschedule path, and what happens to dropped slots — the answers spread across a 0–100 scale.
The four axes
- Confirmation & reminder speed (30%). How fast the first confirmation lands after booking, and how the reminder ladder runs — a week out, a day out, day-of, with a tappable confirm/reschedule path.
- Channel coverage (25%). Whether reminders travel the channels patients actually see — text beats email beats a call nobody answers — against what's expected for your business type.
- Rebooking persistence (25%). How many times a no-show hears from you about rebooking. Written off is a choice, and it's the expensive one.
- Backfill coverage (20%). What a dropped slot triggers — instant waitlist offer, manual scramble, or nothing. The difference between a cancellation and a loss.
The free score vs. the $500 first fix
The free score is what you tell us, labeled as that. The first fix is a week that ends with your schedule defending itself. Days one and two: your no-show pattern baselined from your own book — rates by day and slot type, what reminders exist now, where the holes cluster — timestamped from your own records, with your written permission. Days three and four: ONE fix from the menu below, built and running. Day five: the before/after in writing.
The menu (your report's worst axis picks)
- The Reminder-Ladder Install (reminder rhythm worst — most common). The 48-hour, 24-hour, and morning-of sequence with one-tap confirm and reschedule, worded in your voice, wired to how your book works. The empty chair stops being a surprise.
- The Same-Day Refill Install (backfill worst). A dropped slot triggers the waitlist text automatically — a cancellation becomes an opening, not a loss.
- The Rebook Install (persistence worst). Every missed appointment gets a same-day rebook text instead of a write-off.
- The Deposit Config (where your booking system supports it). The firmest floor there is, configured honestly — with the trade-offs stated.
One fix per $500, from this menu — the cap is what keeps the price honest. Scope beyond the menu is the full build, quoted in writing.
What we don't do
- Test bookings are clearly disposable, cancelled properly before appointment day, and identified to you after the window — no staff hours wasted, no real slots burned at the last minute.
- No patient data, ever. We measure your flow, not your patients.
- No padded findings. "Your schedule defends itself" is a deliverable we're glad to hand you, in writing.
