A national healthcare provider with over 100 locations nationwide was struggling with the cost and inefficiencies of their internal call center. The company managed a team of 20 call center agents handling appointment scheduling, patient inquiries, prescription refills, and general support. With rising labor costs and long hold times leading to patient frustration, they sought a scalable solution that could improve service levels while significantly reducing expenses.
Action2Call™ implemented a Conversational AI Agent solution, completely replacing their traditional call center. The AI agents now handle over 20,000 inbound and outbound calls per month, delivering real-time, intelligent responses and routing only the most complex cases to human representatives.
