Medical Call Answering and Appointment Scheduling Services

Medical offices have seen a surge in calls, especially after the pandemic, which is why every healthcare organization and medical practice needs telephone answering support. Every phone call that comes into your office should be addressed quickly and with the utmost professionalism and extreme care. 

Appointment scheduling is one of the most frequent types of calls that come into a medical office. Many in-house receptionists struggle with balancing call volume and office management. This is where we can help.

Here are the top 3 reasons you should outsource your medical call answering and appointment scheduling.

1.  Never Miss an Opportunity to Serve Your Patients

Interaction between callers and your office staff is extremely important simply because it’s necessary to put the caller at ease. Therefore, providing a responsive and professional caller experience is one of the primary responsibilities of a receptionist. Whether an existing patient or a new one, our virtual medical answering receptionists are here to assist you with delivering excellent patient support.

Healthcare organizations know that appointment scheduling plays a vital role in their operations. As such, they need a reliable and efficient medical appointment scheduling system that allows them to do what they are best at and transform calls into appointments.

2.  HIPAA Compliant Call Information Gathering

For medical offices or healthcare facilities, HIPAA compliance is paramount. As a 24-hour live medical answering service, we aim to ensure that all calls comply with HIPAA regulations.

We have implemented policies, processes, and procedures to ensure compliance with Federal and State information security laws. We monitor ongoing compliance efforts to maintain accurate and secure reporting and call answering as required by law.

We partner with many healthcare professionals and facilities with various levels of call volume. Under HIPAA, we know that privacy and data security are top priorities. So our HIPAA-certified call agents won’t put your patient’s information at risk.

3.  Medical Appointment Scheduling
