Unlike retail inventory that can be restocked, a missed appointment slot is gone the moment the scheduled time passes. For a practice seeing 20 patients per day, even a 15% no-show rate means three lost slots daily. At an average of $150–$250 per visit, that’s $450–$750 in unrecoverable revenue. Every single day.
