Product Description:

Without Hyro, health system call centers are reaching the burnout threshold too quickly. That’s when the perfect storm of missed calls, long wait times and poor user experience hits hard, ultimately causing patient churn and lost revenues. With Hyro, call center capacity is a non-issue, with 65-85% of calls being automatically deflected or resolved end-to-end, and the remainder of calls being quickly and accurately routed to the right departments.

It's an ever-clean filter you never need to change – Hyro has a three-pronged system to sorting call volume, automating routine calls without human intervention, directing complex calls to the right agent, and deflecting simple calls to SMS for self-service.

Use Cases

Description:

We white-labeled and fully-configured a COVID-19 screener to the care access points (hospitals, telemedicine providers, nurse hotlines, and at-home resources of a 17-hospital system (reach out to learn specifics). A COVID-alert message on the home page routes users to the option to screen their symptoms for risk of infection and presentation of system-wide care options. The entire process of whitelabeling, configuring, implementing, testing, and going live was complete in 5 business days.

Pediatric use cases:

Clearstep's virtual triage platform is able to route >99% of adult and pediatric chief complaints towards their evidence-based next step.

Users:

Once live, an e-mail campaign was sent out to 650,000 residents in the areas surrounding the system to inform them that they could screen their symptoms. The email achieved the highest engagement rates of any mailer ever (3x higher email open rate and click-through rates). The COVID screener was used 30,000 times in the first three days.

Description:

The following use cases, usually comprising 60-70% of all inbound calls and messages to a health system, can be automated:

  • New Patient Registration
  • End-to-End Scheduling
  • Appointment Verification, Rescheduling and Cancellation (Available via Epic EMR)
  • Physician Search
  • Rx Management (Status, Tracking and Refills)
  • Location Finder
  • Spot: GPT-Powered Search
  • Smart Routing/ Triage
  • IT Help Desk/ Troubleshooting
  • SMS Deflection
Pediatric use cases:

All use cases can be tailored to suit pediatric demands, including tweaking the conversational skills to relate to pediatric oncologies.

Differentiators

Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:
Clearstep marries disparate data sets that exist in various locations within the system. We take the responsibility to marry clinical content, provider directories, insurance & eligibility information, claims data, and scheduling systems so that your system's teams do not have to. Clearstep is ready-made and fully-supported by our development team.platform that is customizable to your health system's specific resources. Clearstep's business solution package also offers patient targeting to ensure that patients searching specific symptoms within a health system's geography are routed into that system via a seamless, effortless, already-built user experience.
Differentiators vs Competitors:
Clearstep is the only solution providing an end-to-end user experience that guides patients through all aspects of booking care. Our symptom checker is powered by the most accurate triage, diagnostic, and home care content available and is derived off content that is already used in 95% of nurse call centers in the country. Clearstep uniquely offers a natural language processing engine that can handle free-text descriptions of an individual's chief complaint. In addition to featuring the most accurate content available, Clearstep's digital dialog asks the least number of questions as compared to competitor platforms and provides a single next-best step. Competitors often provide multiple possible causes and next steps that reduce clarity for the end-user's next step.
Differentiators vs EHR Functionality:

Hyro layers on top of EHR functionality, adding natural language understanding to pre-existing workflows and use cases across Epic, Cerner and Athena.

Differentiators vs Competitors:

Our main competitors, such as Syllable and Nuance, focus on intent-based voice solutions. Intent, within the conversational AI space, usually means "if X then Y". For example, if AVIA says "red" then stop. We know that conversations need to be more flexible than a rigid flow chart of intents, so Hyro invented a new language-based approach called Adaptive Communications, which uses a knowledge graph, computational linguistics and natural language understanding to simplify and speed up deployment processes. Because of our approach, health systems do not need to constantly update their voice interfaces based on ever-changing content. It also means that typical challenges with conversational AI, including adding new use cases to existing deployments, are nullified with the ability to layer on new data without retraining the model. Ultimately, the time and cost saved by switching from intent-based to language-based is what drove Intermountain Healthcare, Baptist Health, Novant Health and plenty of other health systems to Adaptive Communications.

Unique Benefits: 

  • No-code, effortless deployment, and maintenance that doesn’t require any playbooks or training data
  • Voice AI that adjusts to changes in context
  • Fast automation of dozens of customized use cases and skills simultaneously
  • Industry-leading understanding rate at an average of 85-90%
  • Seamless live handoff between AI and agents on Cisco, Genesys, NICE, Twilio and more
  • Automatic 24/7 scraping of data sources including websites, EMRs/ CRMs, APIs, and client databases
  • Real-time dashboard with insights (trends, keywords, and metrics) that helps to optimize digital services
  • Explainability that allows health systems to understand why/how AI provides all outputs
