Closed petition Fine those who fail to attend their NHS appointments
Closed on
As an interpreter I regularly experience patients not attending their appointments. Missed appointments waste valuable NHS resources and affects other patients attending their GP / hospital.
If there was a fine for missing your appointment, without a valid excuse, patients would think twice.
