With decades of experience and a 97.1% retention rate, there’s no one quite like us. It’s time to say goodbye to being overwhelmed and hello to a medical answering service that you know you can rely on.
How a Hospital Answering Service Works
There is a lot more to hospitals than the emergency room. You have appointments, checkups, triage, patient outreach, and ambulatory care. There are so many departments that it can be easy to lose track of, but it’s even easier for healthcare professionals to become overwhelmed when answering calls, which can lead to a decrease in terms of patient care.
When you use medical answering services for a hospital, it is there to help make answering calls easier and more organised. When you receive emergency calls outside of business hours, they are immediately directed to the correct medical professional or department. You never have to worry about patients calls being ignored as our automated service is excellent at screening and message taking to ensure everyone gets to the department they need.
While the urgent calls go straight through, the non-urgent ones are organised and bundled together. These are sent through to the relevant department the next business day (or according to your instructions) so that they can be organised and responded to in a timely manner. It ensures customer satisfaction on both ends as you have a more organised system to work with and your patients don’t feel ignored or neglected.
Why Use a Hospital Answering Service?
A professional answering service is one that works quickly and efficiently to connect patients with a medical professional so that their needs are met in excellent time. A hospital answering service takes the pressure off inbound calls by organising them for you so that you can prioritise the patients that need you most.
We know how important it is to take urgent calls, but also that things can quickly become overwhelming when you have a high call volume. In a hospital, you need all the time you can get and when you spend too much time answering calls it can have a negative impact on other aspects of your care.
This is why so many medical professionals choose to use answering services. It takes care of inbound calls, makes appointment setting easier, and gives patients peace of mind. At Medical Answering Service AI, we are also proud of the fact that we are fully HIPAA compliant, which means your patients are always protected when using our phone answering service.
Benefits of a Hospital Telephone Answering Service
Medical answering services for hospitals have a range of benefits that ensure you and your patients are getting the care they need. After all, your departments already struggle to keep up with everything, and taking calls is just one more thing for them to deal with. But if you decide to use a phone answering service for your hospital, what are the benefits of doing so?
Since our phone answering service is available 24/7, you never have to worry about your patients being unable to get through when they are making urgent calls. We pride ourselves on being a medical answering service you can trust, and one that is able to answer calls after hours as well as during business hours to help medical centers become more organised.
There’s no more running around and frantically trying to take messages for later while also attempting to connect urgent calls. With our medical answering service, you can take a step back and focus on other aspects of patient care in addition to the calls instead of letting callers take over your work day.
Being HIPAA compliant is something we make apparent to all of our clients and the medical centers we work with. It ensures patient privacy when they use our medical answering service, keeping them protected and building an element of trust between your hospital and the people that it treats.
When our automated services answer calls and take messages, everything is kept secure and delivered to the correct location without the worry of human error. We want to provide a great patient experience and always demonstrate exceptional customer care.
Time is something you don’t have a lot of, and money is hard to come by in the medical field. This is why allowing us to take incoming calls is the perfect solution. Not only do we charge a flat rate of $69 without the fear of hidden fees, everything is organised and delivered for you so that you just have to deal with the urgent calls and handle the non-urgent ones later.
We are very happy to announce that we are able to tailor your medical answering service package so that it meets the needs of your medical centers and the patients that you treat. We’re not like a call center, we have an answering plan that is customised for you and works with your hospital to deliver the best possible patient experience.
We have decades of experience in the medical field, and it is part of what makes our medical answering service so sought after – we already know what you want. While we will always listen to you and implement your requirements, it gives you peace of mind to know that you are working with an answering service that actually knows what it’s doing.
The issue with a live person in a call center is the fact that you often end up with human errors and you can’t guarantee that patient information is safe (people talk). Our automated service ensures that patients are connected to their medical professional in less than three seconds, and all urgent calls get that same treatment.
The fact that we are an automated service means that you get accurate message taking with word-for-word notes being sent forward. You’re getting all of that and a fully HIPAA compliant solution that works after hours as well as during business hours – it’s whatever you need.
Types of Hospital Calls our Medical Answering Services Can Handle
We understand that hospitals are massive medical operations and there are dozens of departments working hard to coordinate operations. Even after years of work, expansion, and restructuring, it can remain overwhelming for the stall.
Medical answering services for hospitals can act as an automated switchboard, providing a streamlined way to answer phone calls for every aspect of healthcare communication all while remaining HIPAA compliant.
Hospitals are subjected to a constant wave of critical and urgent care calls as well as calls that don’t need to be immediately handled by hospital staff. This is where medical answering services like ours come in, offering 24/7 support and answering phone calls so that they can be organized correctly. We’ll ensure you get the important ones and have the non-urgent phone calls bundled up for later so that you can get to them as quickly as possible.
We know that medical practices like hospitals have healthcare at the top of their priorities. However, there aren’t enough hours in the day and constantly answering calls that aren’t urgent can impact patient care.
A telephone answering service for inbound calls is not only cost-effective, but also saves time and ensures that you can organize things more efficiently. Since we are an automated service, you also get complete accuracy without the risk of human error that often comes with an inbound call center.
