Top Benefits Of VoIP For Medical Offices

The main benefits of VoIP solutions for small healthcare practices and enterprise-size medical offices include remote consultation, mobility, call handling, account processing, IVR system, video conferencing & video consultation, information dissemination & alerts, and money saving.

Remote Consultation

Using Huddle, net2phone’s HIPPA-compliant video conferencing software, you can offer remote care and consultations to patients. This service can be invaluable for people who are too ill to travel, are motion impaired, live in remote locations, or lack transportation

Presence & Mobility

Stay flexible and mobile with the net2phone mobile app. Medical staff can stay connected from anywhere, anytime, using smartphones, tablets, and laptops.

Presence features allow you to monitor the status of healthcare staff, including emergency response team members. By viewing staff statuses, dispatchers and administrators can easily coordinate duties. Status options include "On Call," "Do Not Disturb," "In Transit" and more.

Call Handling

Provide round-the-clock accessibility to patients and stakeholders with call center capabilities. Advanced call-handling features, like auto-attendant and intelligent routing, help you provide a better call experience. Handle simultaneous calls and high call volumes while continuously providing the best quality of care.

Interactive Voice Response (IVR)

IVR will free up administrative staff time. Your system automatically answers calls, presents a menu, and routes calls. Your callers can be routed to the right person or department, placed in a call queue or sent to a voicemail box.

IVR menu options allow patients to access information like specialist availability, test results and more without needing to speak to anyone.

Video Conferencing & Consultation

Use net2phone’s videoconferencing tool Huddle for collaboration, mentorship and appointments with remote patients. You have the flexibility to use a laptop, desktop or mobile device.

Information Dissemination & Alerts

Working in healthcare, you may need to broadcast reminders, alerts and emergency information in real-time. You can integrate the net2phone phone system with on-premises hardware like buzzers, alarms, and public address systems, so you’re always prepared.

Availability & Business Continuity

Healthcare facilities must remain available to stakeholders, no matter what. With VoIP, virtual numbers and call routing ensure staff remain accessible wherever they are. Natural disasters or events that affect network connectivity can be handled with failover options, such as transferring calls to mobile phones.

Saving Money

VoIP has significant cost benefits for medical practices. Unlike traditional landline systems, you do not need to purchase, manage, or maintain your on-premise phone system. Healthcare facilities, hospitals, and doctors can take advantage of net2phone's cost-effective and innovative VoIP solutions.
