What would automation actually save your practice?

Move the sliders to match your practice. The numbers update in real time, every assumption is documented, and there is no email gate. If the model says the upside is small, we will tell you that on the discovery call instead of pretending otherwise.

Defaults shown match a typical 5-provider US primary care practice.

How the model gets there

Every line below is a real calculation, not a black-box estimate.

Monthly visits at your practice
5 providers × 70 visits/week × 4.33 weeks
1,516 visits
No-show rate · current vs. modelled
25% relative reduction (MGMA-cited studies on smart reminders + waitlist fill show 15–30%; we model the middle). Floored at 5% — no model should claim zero no-shows.
15% → 11.2%
Visits recovered each month
227 no-shows → 170 after smart reminders, waitlist fill, and same-day reschedule.
+57 visits
Revenue recovered each month
57 visits × $135 average revenue per visit (gross, before payer mix adjustments)
$7.7k
Admin hours reclaimed each month
3 staff × 22 hrs/week × 30% reduction. We only count the automatable bucket (phone, reminders, intake) — not in-person triage or payments.
86 hours
Staff cost reclaimed
86 hrs × $25/hr blended cost (salary + benefits + payroll burden, US average for medical front-desk roles)
$2.1k

A note on these numbers — and where they come from. The model uses the middle of published industry ranges, not the most flattering case study. Inputs we pulled from:

  • · No-show reduction 15–30% — MGMA practice management benchmarks & multiple peer-reviewed RCTs on automated reminders. We model 25%.
  • · Admin time reduction 20–40% on automatable workflows (phone, reminders, intake) — Healthcare IT Today, AMA practice efficiency studies. We model 30%.
  • · $25/hr blended front-desk cost — BLS occupation data for medical secretaries plus a ~25% benefits/payroll burden.
  • · Revenue per visit — your input. Defaults reflect typical primary-care reimbursement; specialty practices should raise this materially.

What this model does not account for: payer-mix variance, contractual write-offs, staff redeployment vs. headcount reduction, change-management cost, and any practice-specific friction we have not seen yet. The only number that survives all of those is the one we calculate against your real schedule on the discovery call.

ROI is benchmarked against the AUOGE mid-tier engagement ($599 / month). Smaller scopes start at $299, larger at $799+. Pricing is fixed per scope, not per seat.

A 30-minute call. We pull the baseline from your actual scheduling system, plug it into a sharper version of this model, and tell you on the same call whether automation pays back fast enough to be worth scoping.
