Reduce Staff Burnout and Improve Productivity With Automation
The Impact of Automated, Omnichannel Patient Engagement on Staff Burnout
Repetitive tasks like scheduling appointments, post-procedure patient follow-ups, vaccine reminders, and closing referrals are critical to maintain health system volumes and keep patients thriving. Yet today, healthcare teams are juggling more priorities than ever before, forcing hospitals to address inefficiencies that contribute to staff burnout.
Thankfully, the latest automation technology embedded in the electronic health record (EHR) eases the manual work required of staff while empowering patients with self-service tools to manage their healthcare visits. Digital, omnichannel, two-way interactions that support patient engagement communications make this possible.

“Adopting the HouseCalls Pro platform has endeared us to our operations and executive teams. ACPNY has implemented a variety of automated workflows and over twenty Epic-event-based messages. We also love the self-service capability and on-demand broadcast messaging.”
“Since adopting HouseCalls Pro to capture real-time, self-reported patient information via SMS and record that in Epic, we have continued to expand the use of automated workflows. The configurability of the system and the service provided has been excellent.”
“Recently, a whole practice had to move. HouseCalls Pro provides tools that send reminders out, so we didn’t have a time delay to send out customized messages. We didn’t have to wait for TeleVox’s staff to build something. That helped our practice because we didn’t have to reach out to each patient to let them know where the new location was. Reaching out to each person would have cost a lot of money, so TeleVox’s system has saved us a lot of money. Everything ties into the finances. With this solution, we can utilize our time for other things. Our patient turnover would cost us in the long run if we weren’t utilizing the time slots and the follow-up program. Patients have come back, and we have made them aware that they need to be seen for things. The solution has definitely had a positive financial impact.”
“TeleVox’s greatest strength is customer service. When I have questions or need somebody to intervene, I get very good responses from my account manager. That individual is excellent and always checks on us to see whether there is anything they can do.”
“I really believe in the HouseCalls Pro product, and I regularly engage in networking with other people that use the system. I am a big fan of the platform and the framework on which the platform is built.”
The Patient Family Notifications workflow has helped a lot with logistics. Especially since we have limitations on people entering the hospital due to COVID protocols. It has really helped coordinate with rides. Family members drop the patients off and eventually they get the message that their family member is in recovery and know it’s time to head back into the hospital to pick them up. That is very helpful.
Since we started using TeleVox, we have had fewer no-shows. I think that is the goal of any appointment reminder system, and we have seen that.
