The federally qualified health center successfully increases the show rate by 24% for appointments with a high risk of no-show

WESTBOROUGH, Mass.: Centerpoint Health, a leading federally qualified health center (FQHC), today announced a successful integration of the no-show prediction AI model, achieving 90% accuracy in identifying and reducing missed appointments. Powered by AI and machine learning, the healow® no-show prediction AI model empowers Centerpoint Health with a reliable tool to proactively manage their scheduling and outreach strategies. By harnessing data from eClinicalWorks® EHR, the practice has significantly enhanced its operational workflows, leading to improved efficiency and patient care.

Centerpoint Health serves communities in Butler, Warren, and Hamilton counties in Ohio, providing affordable, high-quality, and accessible primary, dental, obstetrics, and gynecology services and behavioral health care. Missed appointments are a significant challenge for healthcare providers, leading to lost revenue and negative patient health outcomes. By identifying which appointments are likely to be missed, the practice can proactively reach out to patients with targeted reminders and rescheduling options. The healow no-show prediction AI model leverages information from previously missed appointments to make the predictions.

With the healow no-show prediction AI model, Centerpoint Health has reported:

• An increase in the show rate by roughly 24% for the appointments with a high risk of no-show.
• Ability to track missed appointments and note the reasons provided by patients for missed or canceled appointments within the eClinicalWorks EHR.
• Make data-driven decisions to drive workflow processes around scheduling strategies.

“The healow no-show prediction AI model helps us streamline the identification and outreach process to patients, enhancing overall access to care,” said Catherine Engle, CEO of Centerpoint Health. “The model has positively impacted our practice and is easy to work with. It allows us to use data to drive our workflow processes around scheduling strategies. The no-show prediction percentage embedded in the eClinicalWorks schedule is an amazing feature that helps track reasons for not attending the appointment. Additionally, the team is open to our feedback and willing to answer our questions, making this a valuable partnership. I recommend this product to other practices looking to reduce no-shows and improve workflow processes.”
