Eliminate the Cost of an Empty Chair

Appointment Management Services

Let AnswerNet make, manage and remind your clients of their appointments. AnswerNet has Appointment Management Services to run your schedule efficiently and profitably.

What's the Cost of an Empty Chair?

Let’s take a look at a business with $100 appointments, a list of 400 clients in a month and the cost of the “no-show”:

  • 2 no shows per day = $200
  • 14 no shows per week = $1,400
  • 52 no shows per month = $5,200

What's the Cost of An Appointment Reminder Service?

It is about $0.20 per transaction or $80 per month. What is the cost of a scheduler? It is about $1.40 per day or $40 per month. The total monthly cost for both is $120. The reduction in “no-shows” in a month is 75%, preserving $3,980 in revenue. Why wouldn’t you have this service?

Appointment Reminder Service Frequently Asked Questions

  • How is the Appointment Reminder Service used?
    Some of the most popular uses for AnswerNet’s Appointment Reminder Service are doctor appointment reminders, recall notices, pre-op instructions, bill collections and prescription notices.
  • How does it work?
    A data file is uploaded to our database every day either manually or automatically. Your calls will be made during the time period you specify. We can make up to seven call attempts per time slot, for up to three days. The call dispositions include number of calls, how they were reached, number of appointments confirmed, changed or cancelled. This information will all be available through a web-accessible report. The results of the calls can then be merged with your scheduler, for up-to-the-minute call data.
  • How do I know it will be compatible with my scheduler or office management system?
    The Reminder Service is independent of any platform or office management system. A simple file is uploaded (in one of many acceptable formats) and the database takes care of the rest.
  • Do I need to purchase hardware or software?
    You will never need to purchase hardware, software or have to pay for an upgrade. This is Software as a Service (SaaS).
  • Do I need to sign an annual contract?
    AnswerNet does not require annual contract. Our clients pay month-to-month. We do ask for 30 days written notice in the event of cancelation.
  • Does the system use a computerized voice?
    The system uses professional voice over talent for that warm, human sound that a computerized voice can never offer.
  • How will the client know it’s my office calling?
    The number displayed on the caller ID is up to you. We can customize the caller ID to show your office or personal line.
  • Can the message be sent in ways other than telephone?
    Yes! Messages can be transmitted via telephone, fax, email, text message or even received using our smartphone application.
  • Are there message reply options?
    The recipient can confirm, change, cancel or speak to an operator depending on the service options that you choose for your application.
  • May I see a demo or test the service before I make a decision?
    Your sales person will be able to set up a demo of the service for you. Contact us for a demonstration.
