Guy's and St Thomas' save £2.6 Million with DrDoctor

Learn how together we've lowered DNA rates and generated financial savings, while developing a solution that transforms how care is delivered.

The situation

Guy’s and St. Thomas’ is one of the UK’s leading foundation trusts, with 2 large central London hospitals, 2.3 million patient contacts, and 1.2 million outpatient appointments through their 1,000 inpatient beds per year.

Following a successful pilot primarily with the Women’s Services Department in 2015 (resulting in ‘Did Not Attend’ rate dropping by 30% and attendance rates improving – equivalent to an extra 2,440 patients over a year, and worth £317k profit), DrDoctor was implemented to all outpatients departments throughout the Trust beginning in April 2016.
