How these figures were built. From the public websites of 229 medical practices in Utah that we could read clearly. Each site was checked for seven things that decide whether a patient who can’t get through by phone still reaches the schedule. Dollar figures are estimates for a typical independent practice: our working figures for missed calls, no-shows, cancellations and overdue patients, adjusted for what each site offers and valued at the local front-desk wage (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, May 2025). They are estimates, not measurements of any one practice. No practice is named on this page.
