It's the classic clinic dilemma: Do you prioritize the patient who booked weeks ago, or the urgent walk-in standing at your desk? Why choose?
Managing a mix of scheduled and unscheduled arrivals mentally is impossible. You end up with empty slots when appointments cancel, and an overcrowded waiting room when walk-ins surge. myTurn's Hybrid Model solves this by dynamically weaving both streams into a single, optimized flow.
The Perfect Fit
Our algorithm fills gaps between appointments with walk-in patients. If an appointment ends early or cancels, the system instantly calls the next walk-in, ensuring zero downtime.
Fair Play
Appointments get their guaranteed time. Walk-ins get a transparent, real-time estimate. Everyone knows where they stand, eliminating "queue rage" at the reception.
How Hybrid Wins
Don't alienate 50% of your patients. Serve everyone better.
Need to squeeze in an urgent case? Flag a walk-in as "Priority" and the system automatically adjusts the timeline without crashing the entire schedule.
If Dr. Smith is running late, the system can intelligently route new walk-ins to Dr. Jones (if eligible), keeping the overall flow moving.
Your receptionists don't need to juggle a web calendar and a ticket printer. myTurn handles online bookings and physical arrivals in a single, intuitive interface.
Stop juggling patients.
Let myTurn automate the flow. Clinics using our hybrid model reduce wait times by an average of 40%.
