1. No Shows
2. People call up and are ill and want to be seen without an appt.
3. Interruptions from labs, pharmacies, parents, etc.
4. People are late for their appts.
5. Really sick patients need more time or hospitalization or referrals.
6. People lie about the reason they want to be seen and more time is needed.
7. Paperwork
8. Try to see a patient every 15 minutes, but if each patient runs just a few minutes late the time is compounded by the end of the day.
