dc.description.abstract | This study aimed to identify the characteristics of walk-in patients who visited a dental university hospital more than once (returning patient). The factors affecting walk-in visits were analyzed in relation to demographic, appointment, and treatment characteristics among 146,567 cases treated between 1 March 2019 and 29 February 2020. Multiple logistic regression was used to assess factors influencing walk-in visits. The walk-in rate was 14.1%. The likelihood of walk-in visits was higher in men, patients aged 20-39 years, patients residing in Seoul, and hospital employees or their family members. Walk-in visits were more likely to take place from 8:00 to 9:59 and on Saturdays and Mondays. The walk-in odds ratios differed depending on the treatment department and diagnosis. Return patients had higher odds of walk-in visits for treatments not covered by insurance. The probability of being a walk-in patient was lower among patients who also received treatment in other departments on the same day than among those who did not. These results indicate that each examined factor has a predictable pattern. The findings also suggest a relatively high percentage of walk-in cases in dental university hospitals and that walk-in patients differ in their characteristics from patients with appointments. | - |
