Week of November 22, 2025: Grab a helping of Thanksgiving celebration ideas + Patient loyalty tips

As we head into Thanksgiving, we’re thankful for you — and for the vital work you do for your patients and communities.

This week’s edition brings holiday engagement ideas for your team and patients, updates on legislation that may shape your operations, and a look at why practices continue to move from paper charts to EHRs. 

Plus, access our latest research on the true causes of no-shows and how private practices can help close appointment gaps resulting from seasonal travel disruptions.

Stricter policies and more reminders haven’t reduced no-shows — they’ve just frustrated patients. 

Why? Because most providers are still solving for forgetfulness, not the real reasons patients cancel. 

This free report breaks down the disconnect, reveals what actually works, and helps you take action — no overhaul required.
