interesting thought,
P, do they get charged for not turning up ?
my daughter had one hospital clinic appointment postponed because she was being treated as an in-patient.
on asking for a second postponement because of being unable to travel 350 miles in deep snow, she was told a charge would be made for a re-schedule!.
On declining, a letter arrived a few days later thanking her for letting the hospital know she no longer needed treatment!
And then, of course, the rigmarole of getting her back into the waiting list!
