Reduce MRI No-Shows With One PDSA Cycle
Design a small PDSA test for a radiology access problem before scaling the change.
Small tests beat big announcements. A radiology schedule is too expensive and too patient-sensitive for guesswork. Plan the learning, not just the task Write the prediction before the test starts. Name the narrow population, the exact change, the baseline, the success measure, and the balancing measure. For an MRI no-show test, the balancing measure may be scheduler call time, patient confusion, or earlier cancellations that still need backfill. Do the smallest credible version The test should be small enough that failure is affordable and real enough that success means something. One scanner day, one scheduling pod, or one exam type…
