A cancellation costs you twice — the empty slot today, and the patient who never comes back. Both are recoverable.
Two things happen the moment a cancellation or no-show is logged.
The open slot goes out to patients who said they wanted an earlier appointment, so a same-day cancellation has a chance of becoming a same-day booking.
The person who cancelled gets a rebooking sequence timed to their treatment interval — not a single text on the day, and not nothing at all.
None of it lands on your staff. No one has to remember who cancelled last Tuesday or whether anyone followed up.
