Have you been searching for a medical answering service that actually works and gets the job done? We know how you feel, and that’s why we’ve got just what the doctor ordered. At Medical Answering Service AI, your needs come first and we provide a service you can trust.
What is a Healthcare Answering Service?
Healthcare answering services are there when you can’t be. We provide a fully automated service that picks up patient calls when you are out of the office and filters them so that emergencies are put through to you and non-urgent calls are sent to you the next day.
We are fully HIPAA compliant, as all good answering services should be, and having a system like this ensures better patient care and that you are actually able to handle emergencies without being flooded with regular enquiries. It makes things simpler for medical professionals, and in a world that is increasingly complex, it is certainly needed.
How Does Our Doctor Answering Service Work?
The process is simple, easy, and completely HIPAA compliant (as well as offering health insurance portability) for your peace of mind. When you activate the answering service (whether it’s because it is after hours or you are briefly out of the office), our automated service will answer patient calls as they come in. It’s not like a call center, everything is automated to make things more efficient and remove human error.
If the patient is calling with an emergency, the system will put them through to the on-call medical professional within three seconds. If there is no answer, you don’t need to worry as it will immediately put them through to the next medical professional on the list to ensure they are taken care of as quickly as possible.
In the case of non-emergency calls, these are bundled up together and delivered to you the next working day. This gives you time to look through them at your convenience so you can schedule appointments and get back to them. Your patients have free access, and you just have to pay an incredibly reasonable flat rate of $69 per month (with no hidden fees).
Benefits of Using a Healthcare Answering Service
There are several benefits to using medical answering services, and all of them help improve your relationship with your patients while also keeping call volume under control.
This is perhaps one of the most important aspects of the healthcare industry. You are here to look after your patients and keep their minds at ease. By allowing our automated services to take patients calls and direct them to you, they are guaranteed quick communication with their chosen physician in an emergency.
The issue with a live operator is that you often get human errors. With our automated services, you get secure messaging and speedy message delivery for urgent calls. There’s no human error as emergencies are directed to the correct medical professional within seconds so that patients get the care they need.
Your patients benefit from being able to call their chosen medical practices 24/7 without issue. If it is an emergency, the calls are forwarded to you, and if it isn’t then they are bundled up and sent to you the next working day so that they can be dealt with accordingly. After hours appointments have never been easier for medical professionals and patients alike.
By having a medical answering service such as ours, you have the opportunity to improve your reputation as well as your relationship with your patients. As many as 60% of bad online reviews are the result of incoming calls being ignored and the frustration of appointment setting.
Being able to handle overflow calls and after hours calls aren’t just good for your reputation, it also shows your patients that you care about them. It’s the kind of answering service that you just can’t say no to when you realize how beneficial it is to the reputation of medical centers.
The thing is, we know that medical professionals just like you are exhausted. You have a lot to deal with and very little rest, which is why medical answering services are such a good step forward. You have time to rest when the practice closes while our answering services filter calls and make sure you’re only getting the actual emergencies. Rested physicians mean cared for patients.
