# Schedule Leakage Prevention review — Xona > Find where patient demand leaks across calls, recall, cancellations, and schedule gaps before changing workflows. Source: https://xonark.com/dental-leakage-check/ Free Schedule Leakage Prevention review # Recover missed dental demand without blaming your front desk. Xona checks where schedule leakage happens across calls, recall, cancellations, reschedules, and open chair time — then recommends the safest staff-approved LPS workflow. [Request leakage review](#leakage-form)[Estimate missed demand first](/calculators) The first LPS review does not contact patients, change schedules, or write to your dental software. It identifies the safest leakage point to check first. Where schedule leakage happens 01 ## Missed calls and web requests Why: Check-in, checkout, insurance, forms, phones, and patients at the counter all collide during peak moments. Xona LPS: Xona answers or captures the request, follows clinic rules, books when approved, or creates a clean follow-up task for staff. 02 ## After-hours demand Why: The patient is ready now, but the office response waits until the next business window and the intent cools down. Xona LPS: Xona captures requests 24/7, separates urgent, unclear, and safe-to-book items, and prepares the next booking or callback step. 03 ## Unconfirmed appointments Why: A reminder system can send messages, but it does not always turn risk into a visible task before the slot is lost. Xona LPS: Xona shows which appointments need review, captures patient replies, and routes reschedule or cancellation risk to staff early. 04 ## Cancellations and open slots Why: The waitlist, recall list, provider rules, appointment length, and patient preferences are usually spread across tools and staff memory. Xona LPS: Xona helps turn the opening into approved outreach: who can be contacted, what can be offered, and what staff should review. 05 ## Recall backlog Why: Today’s schedule looks busy, so older patient demand stays hidden until someone sorts the backlog and checks reachability. Xona LPS: Xona groups reachable recall patients, estimates conservative opportunity, runs approved outreach, and tracks appointments recovered. What this review is ## Not an instant score. A safe path from estimate to real recovery. Start with an estimate if helpful. The review checks real clinic signals and recommends the safest first workflow before anything runs. 01 / Estimate ### Size the leak with assumptions Calculator / model Use known call, appointment, recall, or production numbers to estimate missed demand. Useful for prioritizing, but not proof. 02 / Safe review ### Review real clinic signals Safe review Review calls, schedule risk, recall, or workflow fit before touching patients. No patient contact, schedule changes, or dental software writes in the first review. 03 / Recovery pilot ### Run one approved workflow Measured result Staff approves the rules and messages. Xona runs the workflow and reports what was booked, saved, needs staff, or still leaking. Leakage becomes a queue The review should lead to a daily staff queue like this: follow-ups, schedule risk, open slots, cancellations, and recovery outcomes in one place. What happens after the review ## The goal is not a prettier report. It is the safest first step. Once the leakage point is understood, Xona turns it into visible staff work with approved outreach rules and outcomes the owner can review. No-blame review ## Your team can be strong and still lose visibility during peak windows. The LPS review separates workflow bottlenecks from staff performance. We look for the safest first recovery path, not someone to blame. You receive ### Missed-demand summary A clear view of the first area most likely to recover demand without adding more front-desk work. You receive ### Estimated opportunity range Assumptions are visible; numbers are estimates, not guaranteed revenue. You receive ### Recommended first step Start with one safe path: calls, recall, cancellations, or open-chair recovery. You receive ### Staff-control notes What Xona can handle, what staff reviews, and what should never be automated. Proof paths ## Preview the evidence before you submit. Use the calculators and sample workflows to understand the assumptions. Every estimate is a starting point for review, not a guarantee of recovered production.

The first review recommends a safe workflow before any live patient handling. ✓ No clinical advice ✓ No treatment-cost promises ✓ Emergency and pain calls follow escalation rules ✓ Unclear requests become staff tasks ✓ Approved appointment types only ✓ Staff approves workflows before go-live Safe first step ## Request a Schedule Leakage Prevention review. Tell us where follow-up is getting hard. We’ll reply with the smallest safe next step and what evidence to review first. First reply expectation We identify the likely leakage point, explain what data is needed next, and recommend whether missed calls, recall, cancellations, or schedule gaps should be reviewed first.
