Daytime Call Management

Increased call volume doesn’t always equate to additional staff or resources to address patients’ inbound calling needs. Increased patient hold times, repeat calls, busy signals, and full voicemail boxes can equate to frustrated patients and staff and lower patient satisfaction scores. notifyMD® can be your strategic resource in facilitating inbound patient communications, ensuring a live voice answers every call 100% of the time without adding staff, telephone lines, or extending office hours. Improve your patients’ experience with notifyMD® as your call management partner.
