Recent Change to No Show/Late Cancellation Policy
Recently we changed our intake form to include our new No Show/Late Cancellation Policy. It now reads:
If a patient cannot make it to an appointment, the patient must notify the provider at least 24 hours before the appointment start time. If a patient cancels late or misses three visits in a row, they will be advised that they are under review and may be eliminated from seeing that provider or all providers in the HawaiiUTelehealth.org network.
