MedConnectUSA is a leading provider of medical answering services and telemessaging services. MedConnectUSA has been serving the health care industry since 1991. MedConnectUSA handles routine and emergency calls for the medical industry only and all calls are answered by HIPAA trained, US operators.
Ensuring that your patients receive the proper care and attention is an integral part of your medical practice. However, that same ideal should apply to all areas of your patient interaction, including answering the phones. Of course, there are times when your staff will not be able to answer the phone, in which case, your patient usually has to leave a voicemail message. This impersonal system is not the best solution to your needs. A medical call center can provide your patients with better service and ensure better reliability for your medical office.
How does a medical call center work? What are the benefits of using this type of solution? First, it provides your patients with a live person with whom to speak. This is a singular advantage over automated voicemail systems or “touchtone” systems that can leave a patient wondering if their message will even be delivered. When patients speak to an empathic, caring operator, they understand that their message has priority, that you will receive it. This provides peace of mind for your patients and ensures that they will continue to use your service. It also offers benefits to you and your office.
What benefits can your office find using a medical call center to answer patient calls? First, you’ll have a wide range of delivery options including email message, text message, fax message, voicemail via operator, and operator delivered messages. This ensures that you are able to receive your patients’ messages no matter where you are, or what time of day it might be, including off hours, lunch hours and holidays. You will never have to worry about messages on your voicemail system being erased, incomplete or not recorded. A medical call center is a tremendous advantage to any doctor’s office.
However, it is essential that you do not choose your medical call center program blindly. You should opt for a company that ensures that patients receive the highest quality service. You should also ensure that the service provides operators within the US, rather than outsourcing those calls to other countries. Language barriers can be horrible hindrances in the medical community and your patients deserve clarity and expertise. Finally, you should choose a medical call center whose staff undergoes ongoing HIPAA training, in order to ensure they are capable of providing the specialized care required to serve your patients adequately.
