Whether utilizing a centralized call center or answering calls locally at the practice level, medical practices are overwhelmed by high call volumes, frequently for routine issues that are easily automated.

The consequence of the current state is that:

• Patients are frustrated by lack of access.
• Staff are frustrated by frustrated patients.
• Your brand is suffering.
• Highly trained staff are forced to handle low complexity issues distracting them from what is most important; providing exceptional care.

Syllable's Patient Assistant for Practices uses conversational AI:

• To answer all incoming calls to a practice.
• To intelligently route calls to the correct destination.
• To provide self-service transactions for appointment scheduling, prescription refill, medical records requests, bill pay, etc...
• To filter out the 20-25% of calls that are spam, robo, and fax.
• To provide detailed actionable insights into the needs of your patients and the performance of your practices in caring for people on the phone.
• To improve your brand promise by providing a more consistent customer service experience for callers.

Easily and quickly integrated into your telephony technology stack, the Patient Assistant is deployable in weeks, cutomizable for unique needs, and costs a fraction of a human phone operator. 

Syllable is a leading provider of healthcare contact center and medical practice automation solutions using conversational AI. 

Syllable's product, the Patient Assistant, is used by both hospitals and practices to intelligently route calls more efficiently and provide for automated transactions like appointment scheduling and prescription refill on the phone.

The Patient Assistant also provides rich insights into the end to end call journey for your patients. Current call center metrics are too focused on the micro engagement at the call center and fail to provide the full extent of operational difficulties patients experience on the phone. 

Syllable is used by health systems such as NewYork-Presbyterian, Houston Methodist, Parkview Health, Memorial Care and Honor Health to improve patient experience, enhance access and reduce the cost of delivering healthcare on the phone.
