The missed-call flow is simple: call is missed, instant text-back, offer to book, appointment booked. Every recovered appointment fills a schedule slot that would otherwise sit empty, directly supporting your net collection rate and keeping Days in AR under control.

For a pediatric practice already managing a heavy Medicaid payer mix — where reimbursement often covers only about 80% of care costs — that overhead growth hits straight against your practice operating overhead rate.

A parent calling about a same-day sick visit who reaches voicemail will simply call the next practice on the list.
