Did you know the healthcare industry loses a staggering $150 BILLION a year due to patient no shows? Transportation issues are cited as the reason for missing medical appointments 65% of the time among seniors. Not only does this impact clinic revenue, staff productivity, and create scheduling and operational stress, it hurts patients as they suffer from disrupted continuity of care, further exacerbating the issue. "For every dollar spent on NEMT, $11 is saved in long-term care." - Christopher Ochs, Kerico #healthcare #NEMT #medicaltransportation #healthcaretransport #seniorcare
