How it works

1

Enter your schedule details

Provide daily available slots and their length, exams scheduled today, average exam duration, and your expected no-show rate.

2

We calculate expected demand

Scheduled exams are adjusted for the no-show rate to estimate expected show-ups, then multiplied by average exam duration for required minutes.

3

Get a utilization result

Required minutes are compared against available slot-minutes to produce a capacity-utilization percentage and a matched scheduling action.

Frequently asked questions

How is the no-show rate used in the calculation?

Scheduled exams are reduced by the expected no-show percentage to estimate how many patients will actually show up, since that determines real demand on your slots.

What does a utilization score over 100% mean?

It means expected demand (in minutes) exceeds your available slot capacity even after accounting for no-shows — a signal of likely overbooking or long patient waits.

Does this account for equipment breakdowns or staff absences?

No. This is a straightforward scheduling-capacity calculation based on the inputs you provide; it does not model unplanned disruptions.

Should I use today's actual no-show rate or a historical average?

A historical average for your center and modality is usually more reliable than a single day's figure, since no-show rates can vary.

Is this a clinical or scheduling-system replacement?

No. This is an operational and administrative planning aid to help estimate scheduling pressure, not medical or clinical advice. It does not diagnose anything and does not store or transmit any patient data — all calculation happens client-side in your browser with no backend involved.

Can I use this for a single modality or exam room?

Yes — run it separately for each room or modality since exam duration and no-show rates often differ between them.
