Home Health Care Answering Services

Home health care, a rapidly growing segment in the healthcare industry, allows individuals to be cared for within their homes. Government and privately funded home health care services help people who are aging, recovering from surgery, chronically ill, or disabled. By the year 2030, more than 20% of the country will be over age 65. The older life span of the average American is creating more demand for home health care services such as companionship, personal care, meal prep and delivery, health aides, and housework. Answering all incoming calls, day and night, is critical for a home health care business. Families and caregivers expect, and frequently require, prompt attention and responses from home health care providers.

Finding the right caregiver and services for a loved one is often time sensitive. It’s crucial to have the help needed, when it’s needed. A home healthcare answering service can help to create stability and continuity in the lives of patients and their families. Clients can rest assured their calls will be answered no matter what hour of the day or night and they will have the comfort of speaking with a live agent, so they know their needs are being heard. Long wait times and unanswered calls can negatively impact the health and welfare of clients, and they can also affect your business as well. It’s imperative for calls to be answered as they come in, rather than relying on an answering machine for messaging services. There is nothing worse than calling a provider only to be met with an impersonal answering machine message. Anserve’s multilingual home health care answering services ensure every call is answered on the first ring. Never miss a call again!

Experienced Healthcare Answering Services

An answering service is an extremely beneficial addition to your home health care business. Incoming calls communicate progress or setbacks, and voicemails are not helpful in urgent situations. In the home healthcare business, your families need to be able to access the care they need, when they need it. This means quick response times and open phone lines, with someone at the other end to answer calls in the moment. If you have ever missed a call on your cell phone, you’ve experienced the effectiveness of having employees take calls after-hours. At crucial times or during emergencies, a live agent can make a difference in the case at hand. Picking up on the first ring, customer service agents are ready and able to take incoming calls and ensure your families are well taken care of. Anserve’s home health care answering service can help you provide better service to your families, handling important calls when you’re unavailable, and can provide a better quality of life to all caregivers.

Understanding the impact of a home healthcare answering service on your business

A home healthcare service decided to reduce office staff and focus more on their in-home healthcare personnel, but they were still in need of someone to help out during the day, taking overflow calls, finding replacements for absent employees and answering calls from healthcare providers, facilities and families. The healthcare service didn’t want to create new jobs for these tasks but recognized that they had to find a solution that would allow them to continue focusing on their prioritized skill sets.

The home healthcare provider decided to employ Anserve to act as their business answering service. The decision meant that calls would be received without interruption and patients and providers would be able to speak to a live agent no matter when they called. The healthcare provider saved time and money hiring Anserve and, as a result, was able to divert and bolster financial resources to other portions of the organization.
