HOSPITAL ANSWERING SERVICE

For hospitals and urgent care centers, every day can be filled with crises and challenges. Just answering the phones quickly and accurately are a basic necessity. Since 1989, Answering365's Hospital Answering Services has been providing seamless backup and call-routing services to hospitals and urgent care medical clinics to relieve heavy call volume that can overload a staff.

A Hospital Answering Service does a lot of things well. These include:

• appointment scheduling and confirmation
• prescription reminder outbound telephone calls
• lab result notification for patients when results are ready for pickup
• data base management for emergency protocol and on-call scheduling
• trained agents skilled in accurate message-taking and rapid dispatch
• proper and prompt routing of emergency messages
• effectively facilitate emergency dispatch
• provide clear pre-surgical instructions
• meticulously track medical call activity and issue monthly reports
• efficiently process messages through multiple pathways (i.e. telephone, e-mail,internet, voice mail, and wireless devices)

When an emergency does arise, there is often a fine line between calling 911 and the hospital directly. Many situations don't require the assistance of 911 operators, yet patients would like their issue handled immediately. Hospitals utilizing a hospital answering service allow callers to connect with a live operator 24/7 and receive assistance, an invaluable commodity. Many hospitals have cut back on staffing and maintain skeleton crews working around the clock to provide the proper healthcare assistance their patients deserve. Bearing this in mind, assisting with managing necessary communication processes, allows the hospital staff to concentrate on more pressing issues at-hand. This partnering also gives hospital personnel more flexibility and the ability to help the most where their expertise is required.
