Hospitals
As if hospitals weren’t busy enough, but now with the implementation of universal healthcare combined with an aging population they are now becoming even busier. So busy in fact that many are now looking for ways to streamline their systems for dealing with phone traffic and clerical tasks.
So in ever increasing numbers Courteous Communications with their specially trained TeamMedical Associates is becomming the solution that they’re finding. They’re discovering that by outsourcing their answering services they’re not only saving money but are also finding that the services that their patients are getting are of better quality because we offer the following:
1. General Call Services
Hospitals no longer require costly in-house staff to manage phone banks when their calls can be rerouted and handled off-site by our trained staff, and we’re available 24 hours a day 365 days a year. We also have the staff level to maintain standby operators to deal with peak call overflow on existing phone numbers.
2. Priority Call Transfer
You set the protocols to determine what calls warrant priority handling. Then with those protocols our Team Medical staff has the capacity to instantly transfer priority calls so they can receive prompt attention. These standards and protocols can be modified and implemented anytime you determine the need.
