Revenue Impact

CareLaunch helps increase revenue through:

Reduced No-Shows

• Industry average no-show rate: 20-30%
• With automated reminders: 10-15%
• For a practice with 100 appointments/month at $150 average:
  • 15% reduction = 15 fewer no-shows
  • Revenue recovered: $2,250/month or $27,000/year

Increased Patient Capacity

• Streamlined operations allow seeing more patients
• 10% capacity increase = significant revenue growth
• Example: 5 additional patients/week at $150 = $3,000/month

Improved Collections

• Automated payment collection improves collection rates
• Moving from 85% to 95% collection rate on $50,000/month revenue:
  • Additional collections: $5,000/month

Patient Retention

• Better patient experience increases retention
• 5% improvement in retention can increase profits by 25-95%
• Retained patients have higher lifetime value

Cost Reduction

Software Consolidation

• Typical savings: $200-500/month

Reduced Administrative Staff

• Automation reduces need for administrative support
• Potential savings: $2,000-4,000/month per FTE

Lower Payment Processing Fees
