I would love to have more details on this clinic model! For years I have talked

about having a " Jiffy Lube " model for outpatient therapy, where patients can

come when they want, may have to wait a bit, but often can get immediate

service. It is really the " future " for busy people who don't have time to make

appointments and have difficulty keeping them. Obviously it won't work for all

but certainly could/should be part of the service we provide to our patients.

We need to be available to our customers when they want/need us, not when " it

fits into OUR schedule " !

We tried this once and had great hopes but our attendance crashed as people just

blew it off because they could go any time. My 2 cents. Doug

I am very interested in the post from Alan Petrazzi (Open Access Clinic VA

Pittsburgh). Would love to hear more about it! I have been trying to do this

for years. I think it is brilliant. Let me know if you do a presentation on it

as I would definitely participate.
