How to Reduce No-Shows and Grow Your Behavioral Health Practice - Mend Skip to Main Content

Engaging Mental Health Patients with Automation and Digital Experiences

Behavioral health practitioners endure perhaps the highest no-show rate in healthcare, a staggering 37%. And while no-shows are a major problem for most providers, today’s leading behavioral health organizations are boosting patient attendance with the latest patient engagement software and tools. MindPath Care Centers, for example, maintained a no-show rate of 4% while doubling appointment volumes.

Featuring the VP of Strategy and Innovation of MindPath, this webinar covered industry-specific technology that encourages appointment attendance, allows you to see more patients per day, and provides a pleasant patient experience — specifically for people with mental illnesses and mental health conditions.
