Every weekday dozens of people do not use the health care period in the Päijät-Häme welfare area

The number of unused health care times is not as bad in the Päijät-Häme well-being area as in other areas.

Every year, about 15,000 people leave unused health care in the Päijät-Häme wellness area.

The number means that every weekday, on average, sixty people fail to come to a reserved reception.

However, Nieminen considers the result good. In primary care, two percent of clients leave their time unused. In specialized medical care, only one percent of times are left unused.

For example, the welfare area uses reminder text messages so that times are not left unused. For example, in Kymenlaakso, more than one third of times are left more.
