SOURCE Author’s analysis of data from athenahealth. NOTES Table is based on the baseline sample (N=21.4 million). Each observation represents an outpatient visit.
Wait time is the time (in minutes) between the patient’s check-in time or the appointment’s scheduled time (whichever is latest) and the time the patient is seen by a medical practitioner.
Arrival time is the difference (in minutes) between the time the patients checks in and the appointment’s scheduled time. Negative values imply early arrival; Positive values imply late arrival.
Practice size represents the number of medical practitioners filing claims at the practice.
