How to manage delays
Inform a patient at check in if you expect a delay. If a patient has been waiting for 15 minutes, again inform the patient and apologize for the delay. If you anticipate a longer delay, offer to reschedule the patient if they are unable to wait. This will let the patient know that you value their time.
