Seeking Patient Wait Times for Benchmarking Study

We're conducting a benchmarking study and your information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

1. How long does the patient wait in the waiting room before he/she is called back to Pre-op?

2. How early do you bring your patients in for their procedures?

3. Are you a single or multi-specialty facility?

4. In what state is your facility located?
