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.

Smart Routing:

Navigate calls to the accurate source of support with natural language understanding (NLU)- based smart routing. Instantly match and transfer patient queries to the right service departments, skipping complicated audio menus and lengthy wait times in the process.

End-to-End Resolution:

Automate key digital services from start to finish with conversational AI end-to-end resolution. Solve routine requests such as physician scheduling, paying bills and getting answers to critical questions, without a human in the loop.

SMS Deflection/ Call-to-Text:

Shield overloaded call center teams from repetitive tasks with SMS Deflection (Call-to-Text). Funnel patients to self-serve with the resources you’ve already invested in, directing them to patient portals, FAQ pages, chat solutions and mobile app features.

Benefits:

  • 3-10 day deployment
  • Zero client-side maintenance
  • 60-85% deflection/ resolution of calls and messages
  • 5x Average Handle Time
  • 99% reduction in Average Hold Time
  • Pre-loaded skills, like scheduling and routing
  • Proprietary natural language engine that adapts to patients' dialects, phrasing, sentiment and more
  • Integrations with Epic EMR, Salesforce, and major telephony providers like Cisco, NICE, Genesys and Twilio

Epic, Cerner, athena

Use cases and differentiators

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

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

Typical stakeholders and users of Hyro's Call Center Automation are IT, Digital, Operations and Support teams. The end users of Hyro's Call Center Automation include both patients and provider staff (usually for IT Help Desk applications). 

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

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

Omnichannel technology

"We were seeing an uptick in calls to our Member Services Call Center around services that we’d optimized online, and members just weren’t navigating there. Moving them from one channel to another was the biggest hurdle, and that's why we sought out omnichannel technologies like Hyro."

A game changer

"To fit into our digital roadmap, we were looking for time to value, high quality and an omnichannel approach. But the X-factor for us was Hyro's Conversational Intelligence – being able to point to qualitative and quantitative analytics and show that we've automated a certain volume of tasks and demonstrate the differences we're making organizationally. That's a game changer."

A tremendous experience, a positive experience for our customer base

"Our Care Connections support center team is only so big, and we were getting calls that were taking up tons of time for general questions around the vaccine itself, its safety, its

manufacturing, and its eligibility requirements throughout our Novant footprint. We were looking for a way to provide immediate lift for those call center teams."

"We found through our reporting that out of the total call volume we get, 85% of our calls are routed to VAXA. So we have a large volume—a large percentage of our call volume—where our callers are able to get their questions answered without having to go through a live agent, which provides a lot of lift for our call center teams.”

"The innovation of natural language processing and speech-to-text capabilities through Hyro’s Adaptive Communications Platform provides a natural interaction with automated technology for much of our customer base. For many, it may be their first engagement with conversational AI. Being able to consistently make improvements and iterative changes to keep abreast with our community, our callers and the folks that we engage with—I think it's just been a tremendous experience, a positive experience for our customer base."

"We are seeing a spike in callers opening up new MyChart accounts which provides us with new engagement opportunities for many of our campaigns."
