Brief Summary

To evaluate the association of non attendance at scheduled appointments with visits in the emergency department, hospitalizations and mortality during one year follow up.

Detailed Description

Nonattendance at scheduled appointments at outpatient clinics is a common problem in general medical practice, representing a significant cost to the health care system, and resulting in disruption of daily work planning.Nonattendance at medical appointments has consequences not only for doctors (as it requires a greater use of resources and time), but also for patients, because there may be deterioration in the quality of care, and dissatisfaction associated with delays in obtaining a new appointment
