Fill your clinic schedule, not your healthcare waiting room
WaitWell helps to reduce in-clinic wait times at healthcare location such as walk-in clinics, urgent care, emergency rooms, vaccine clinics, radiology clinics and more.
Medical clinics are busy places. Some patients arrive with appointments, but others may require urgent attention as a walk-in. Front desk staff are busy scheduling appointments, greeting patients and other administrative tasks. Patients can easily become frustrated, especially when they don’t know how long the wait will be. On top of it all, sick patients could be contagious and infect other people while waiting.
The average wait time to see a doctor has steadily increased in recent years. 20% of patients have switched doctors due to long wait times. 30% have walked out of a waiting room because the wait was too long. Poorly-managed wait times are driving patients away from their healthcare providers.
Patients have several options for joining the line or making an appointment:
WaitWell allows clinics and urgent care facilities, imaging facilities and other medical practices to manage appointments and walk-ins from one simple queue screen. Because patients add themselves to the queue and schedule their own appointments, staff have more time to attend to patients who have arrived just in time for their visit.
With WaitWell, doctors see more patients and waiting rooms are less crowded because in-office waiting time is reduced. Clinics that use WaitWell experience better patient satisfaction and lower staff stress levels.
