As patients take on increasingly heavy financial burdens for their healthcare through burgeoning premiums, copays, and deductibles, their tolerance for subpar service diminishes. And the standard to which today’s healthcare consumers hold their physicians—not surprisingly—is the quality they experience when purchasing services from any business.
The call to action for physician practices, therefore, is to elevate their own standards for service, convenience, transparency, and communication—keeping in mind that in the internet age, positive or negative word of mouth can spread instantly and be far-reaching.
This white paper offers key strategies to help practices improve the patient experience.
AI isn't going to replace the doctor. It is going to replace a lot of repetitive, mundane tasks. There are many simple and repetitive tasks involved in patient communication and other patient interactions. When done manually, they can be very time consuming for staff and patients. Patients are frustrated about the issues such as poor communication, long wait times, and lack of digital tools.
However, many of these problems can be addressed with automation and further improved with AI. Therefore, AI is perfect for improving patient communication and experience.
