Smart Patient Management: Patient Waiting List Backlog Solution

Tackling the Patient Waiting List Backlog with Savience’s Intelligent Reminder and Scheduling Solutions for Healthcare

The patient waiting list backlog in Western healthcare is a pressing crisis, with millions of patients facing delays in critical care and services. In the UK alone, NHS waiting lists have surged past 7 million patients, and Ontario, Canada, faces a similarly daunting challenge, with wait times for key procedures stretching into months and even years. 

The Problem with the Patient Waiting List Backlog 

The financial implications of the patient waiting list backlog extend beyond delayed patient care; under-utilised clinic resources, such as missed appointments and empty slots, cost healthcare providers significant amounts annually—wasting time, money, and valuable capacity that could be used for patient care.

Smart Patient Management from Savience

Savience’s smart reminder functionality and intelligent waiting list validation solutions are designed to tackle these challenges head-on. 

Our solution transforms how healthcare providers manage their waiting lists, providing both efficiency and clarity. By using powerful reminder tools, we enable healthcare teams to reach out to patients quickly and effectively for waiting list validation. This ensures that every patient on the waiting list is engaged and their needs are up-to-date, allowing providers to accurately identify those who still require care and those who no longer need to be on the list. 

The result? A leaner, more responsive patient waiting list that reflects true current demand.

But we don’t stop there.

We understand that appointment cancellations and unexpected gaps in the schedule are inevitable. That’s why our solution goes a step further by seamlessly integrating with healthcare facilities’ appointment management systems to offer newly available slots to patients who have been waiting for the longest. 

This “priority-based offering” ensures that no available slot goes to waste and that patients with the greatest need are seen as soon as possible. By maximising resource usage and reducing downtime, our patient waiting list backlog solution not only optimises patient flow but also provides substantial financial relief to overburdened healthcare systems.
