Challenge
A multi-hospital healthcare system with 125 medical centers
and 3,200 physicians needed to improve efficiency while retaining
the effectiveness of its physician referral service. It was
critical that efficiency gains were achieved through process
improvements which would maintain and enhance service levels.
Solution
Edcor designed and implemented a comprehensive outsourced
solution to staff and manage the healthcare consumer call
center. This center handles all incoming calls, appointment
scheduling, call tracking, and reporting for physician referrals.
It also processes course registration for wellness-related
programs.
RESULTS
Return on investment of 4.5 times.
Superior rate of conversion to scheduled appointments
Valuable medical facility space was returned to clinical
purposes
