Missed calls per week, times the share of them that were new patients, times the share of new patients who book, gives new patients lost per week. That times what one new patient is worth gives the weekly cost. A year is 52 weeks and a month is the year divided by 12.
Your phone system or phone provider keeps a call log. Count the calls that rang out, hit voicemail or came in after hours over a normal week. If the log only shows totals, ask your provider for a missed or unanswered call report.
Use the figure your practice already trusts: the average first visit, the average first year, or a longer view if you track it. The calculator does not suggest a number, so the result is only as wide or narrow as the figure you choose.
No. The math runs in your browser and nothing you type is sent to us or stored. If you want us to look at your real call data, the free audit is the way to do that.
We look at how calls and inquiries reach your practice today, where they go unanswered, and what would catch them, then send it to you in writing within one business day. There is no cost and no obligation to build anything.
