Context and how to use this
Estimates gross benefit if reminders shrink no-show rates, minus reminder spend. Attribution is imperfect—treat as directional.
Comply with messaging rules and patient marketing preferences.
Common questions
- Why two no-show rates?
- They represent before and after a change you believe reminders caused. If you lack data, run sensitivity cases.
- Net benefit negative?
- Reminder cost may exceed recovered revenue at low volumes or small improvements—still useful information.
