Reducing Cancellations and Burnout
REGISTER YOUR INTEREST
Reducing cancellations isn't about convincing patients to attend.
It's about creating systems, communication and clinical behaviours that make attending the obvious choice.
"James, I want to share with you that since your course we have been tracking cancellation rates on a weekly basis. Over the last two to three weeks we are consistently at 14% for MSK and 16% for Women's Health. Previously we were 18% and 22%.
Rebooking is also rising. We've always pushed for 85%, but there are always outliers. Now our lowest clinician is at 80%, and the others are all hovering in the high 80s to 90s."

That's a significant improvement in a relatively short period.
Reducing cancellations isn't just about protecting revenue. It means:
- More patients complete their rehabilitation.
- Better clinical outcomes.
- More predictable clinician diaries.
- Less stress for reception teams.
- Improved profitability without increasing marketing spend.
One of the biggest lessons from the workshop is that cancellation rates are measurable, coachable and improvable. When practices begin tracking the right metrics, standardising their rebooking conversations and creating accountability across the team, the results can be surprisingly rapid.
What is your current cancellation rate?
If it's above 10–12%, there is almost certainly an opportunity to improve both patient outcomes and practice performance.
