Increase access to care
Online appointment booking provides patients with the ability to schedule their own appointments at their convenience, whether for virtual or in-person visits. This tool enables easier access to care, removing barriers like long wait times on the phone, and offering a more flexible approach for virtual assistants, patients, and clinicians.
Reduce administrative burden
By automating the appointment scheduling process, online booking significantly reduces administrative tasks for clinic staff. With fewer incoming phone calls, follow-up reminders, and confirmation tasks, staff can focus on more critical aspects of patient care, with one case study showing potential cost savings for physicians ranging from $103 to $252 per month.
Improve continuity of care
Online appointment booking helps ensure that patients are more likely to schedule their appointments with their primary care clinician, fostering stronger continuity of care. Patients are empowered to book at their convenience, ensuring consistent visits and better management of their health needs, while reducing the likelihood of resorting to walk-in clinics.
Reduce missed appointments
A survey study shows a 53% relative reduction in no-show rates when patients use an online patient portal with a scheduling function compared to non–portal users. Take a look at the case study here for more information!

A case study on a clinic’s experience using Online Appointment Booking for cervical cancer appointments and reminders for patients
Preventative care is a pillar of primary health care. Since the 1980s, there has been a dramatic decline in the rate at which people who have a cervix in Ontario (women, transgender, and nonbinary people) have developed and died from cervical cancer.1 This can be almost entirely attributed to the implementation of regular preventative pap…
