The authority says more than 22,000 scheduled appointments were missed by patients in 2022 for such things as CT scans and ultrasounds. Officials say the new service will help to rebook patients as quickly as possible and to use the open appointment time to serve others who need testing. Patients unable to attend their appointment are asked to call 1-844-I-REBOOK (1-844-473-2665) to ensure an appointment time can be used by another patient. According to Nova Scotia Health, one of the factors that leads to missed appointments is the fact patients don’t know how to change it. Other factors include work and family commitments, illness, travel issues, or duplicate appointments. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post كندا: ارتفاع معدل التضخم إلى 4% في آب (أغسطس) next post Gaetz Brook Junior High closes due to power outage You may also like Three tight races as counting continues in Halifax-area... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 Halifax police seek suspect in robbery, property damage... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 Court clears Halifax man of canoe-kayak club voyeurism... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 Nova Scotia Liberal Leader Zach Churchill loses seat... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 Mediation efforts in Canada Post talks suspended as... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 وزارة الصحة الكندية تعلن موافقتها على دواء ’’ويغوفي‘‘ 28 نوفمبر، 2024 نوفا سكوشا: الأكثرية مجدداً للمحافظين التقدميين بقيادة هيوستون 28 نوفمبر، 2024 يُتوقَّع أن تجلب تايلور سويفت لفانكوفر 157 مليون... 28 نوفمبر، 2024 لوغو يطالب بتوقيف ’’البلطجية‘‘ و’’استعادة النظام‘‘ في مونتريال 28 نوفمبر، 2024 Some mandatory water use restrictions introduced for areas... 27 نوفمبر، 2024
