Why Use a Healthcare Answering Service?
When your medical office requires an efficient solution for answering and processing inbound calls, it may be time to look into hiring an answering for medical office service. When your medical office requires an efficient solution for answering and processing inbound calls, it’s time to outsource your services, starting with a doctor’s answering service.
HIPAA requirements for patient privacy and data security place tremendous liability on your shoulders as a covered entity. A compliant medical service provider ensures that this part of your activity is managed according to regulations.
Every call to a hospital is critical. Whether caused by an overflow of incoming calls or a lack of staff training for handling multiple calls simultaneously, missing their calls could result in losing patients to another medical practice.
Our healthcare answering services can help hospitals ensure that all patient calls are dealt with. Every call will be efficiently screened and documented for a more streamlined process.
Hiring more staff for on-site work may not be the most cost-effective step sometimes. Our solution is cost-effective, provides quality patient care in a timely manner, and offers seamless oversight of your staff.
Outsourcing documentation and scheduling appointments can also help improve your work efficiency and boost profit generation.
Having a 24-hour staff is expensive for any medical practice. But our services ensure medical phone calls are answered – 365 days a year, 24 hours a day – for a fraction of the cost of around-the-clock staff. Our services also help in filtering non-emergency cases to improve efficiency.
Our live, bi-lingual call agents can take over during shift changes, when there is a high call volume, and when the facility is short-staffed. With synchronized communication platforms, calls can be forwarded, alert on-call personnel, or transmit key information via text message according to your unique protocol.
Missed calls usually mean missed appointments and missed revenue for your business. If the patient doesn’t make an appointment to see the doctor, then the office can’t bill for that visit.
Using healthcare answering services helps handle higher call volume, increase appointment scheduling rates, increase efficiency, facilitate workflow, and contain costs.
Utilizing a physician answering service allows your patients to leave questions for their doctors. Facilitating communication with medical providers and getting a timely response to important concerns improves overall patient service.
Our customer service representatives are trained to handle calls effectively, which can improve patient experience. Improve patient communication and streamline interviews for more efficiency
Our service provides customizable options that meet the needs of your patients, office, and on-call staff. Agents can verify health insurance, triage over the phone, ask patients specific questions, and accurately record responses.
This enables patients to be efficiently prioritized and provides on-call medical professionals with valuable information.
