Parlance Features
Generative IVR Switchboard
This feature replaces complex phone trees with natural language understanding, allowing callers to speak freely to connect. It eliminates the frustration of keypad menus, significantly reducing hold times and improving the initial patient experience at the digital front door by ensuring rapid, accurate connections.
Patient Access Intelligence
Designed for contact centers, this tool authenticates callers and handles routine inquiries like appointment confirmations or prescription refills automatically. By offloading these repetitive tasks, it frees live agents to handle complex, empathetic interactions that require human judgment, effectively reducing overall agent churn and burnout.
Patient Connector With HL7
This integration links the telephony system directly to the electronic health record (EHR) to automate transfers to patient rooms. Family members can speak a patient's name and be connected immediately, bypassing the switchboard operator entirely while adhering to strict privacy rules regarding patient status.
Managed Directory Services
Unlike standard software where IT must update extensions, Parlance provides a team of analysts to manage your directory. They continuously tune phonetic pronunciations and update staff changes, ensuring the system evolves with your organization and maintains high connection accuracy rates without burdening internal staff.
Analytics And Insights
The platform provides a comprehensive dashboard offering visibility into call volume, caller intent, and system performance. These insights help leadership identify bottlenecks in patient access and measure the return on investment regarding operator offload and successful self-service connections, driving better operational decisions.
