Call
Center
There
were not enough of us to handle the number of calls coming in. SwiftMed
processed all the messages nicely and it now is easily manageable for us.
SC,
Medical assistant, IM practice
Before
SwiftMed, patients were always complaining about being on eternal hold. One
patient said she grew roots while holding. The complaints about the call
center were cramping my practice. Since we started SwiftMed, our same staff
can efficiently take care of all the incoming calls. I no longer have to hear
incessant complaints about the phone system so I can spend more time talking to
my patients about their medical care.
BK,
Internal Medicine PCP
Don t
ever take away SwiftMed. We won t make it through the day!
RE,
Medical assistant, Cardiology
Our
practice runs so much more smoothly with SwiftMed. There number of complaints
from patients has dropped dramatically. Our Press Ganey score went from 3 to 5
stars.
NS,
Manager, Cardiology practice.
SwiftMed
allows us to handle more patient calls. The serious calls are triaged to the
doctors immediately which improves patient safety.
CP,
Medical assistant, Internal Medicine Department
SwiftMed
allows our ancillary staff to take care of every call from patients every day.
We can check the electronic log anytime to review the calls that came in. We
can filter the calls by doctor.
KP,
EP Cardiologist
We
can take care of more calls faster. We can call back most patients within 15
to 30 minutes and we can answer calls on the patients that hold within 4
minutes.
MT,
Medical assistant, Family practice department
Our
Press Ganey score went from 2 to 4 stars within 2 months of starting SwiftMed.
MG,
Manager, GI department
After
we started SwiftMed, we reviewed the electronic logs, did the math and realized
about 70% of the patient calls coming in during business hours went
unanswered.
SD,
Cardiologist
It s
really helpful to be able to text our doctors either by phone app or website
and not break HIPAA.

LVN, Internal Medicine department
Answering
Service
The
AI feature reduces the number of calls that reach doctors so doctors have more
time to handle the more critical calls. This also reduces burnout.
PR,
Family Practice PCP
It s
nice to be able to review the electronic record of calls that came in during
the nights, weekends, and holidays over a matter of minutes. That way we know
what happened to our patients when we are off call.
SH,
EP cardiologist
The
patient information we get from SwiftMed is more accurate and reliable than
from our previous live operator answering service.
BT,
Rheumatologist
Our
OB and laborist schedule include post-call time off. SwiftMed scheduling
allows different repeat functions which make creating the call and vacation
schedules much faster and easier.
MP,
OB/GYN manager
100%
of messages from patients when I m on call reaches me. I like the feature when
I can review what time a message was sent to me, when it reached my app, and
when I read it.
TB,
Internal Medicine PCP
Some
of my colleagues like to receive a text message from a patient call while some
like to be directly connected to the patient while they are on the phone. It s
convenient that SwiftMed allows physicians to choose which option they prefer.
GB,
OB/GYN NP
Hospital
Using
SwiftMed to contact the on-call hospitalist and specialists used to take at
least 10 minutes through the exchange. Now it takes less than 30 seconds with SwiftMed.
KM,
ER physician
We
admit to a dozen different hospitalists daily and with the way they took turns
admitting, it seemed like we were always calling the wrong one. Since using SwiftMed,
we always contact the right hospitalist within seconds.
MK,
ER manager
With
all the different shifts all hospitalists worked, we could not keep track of
who was taking calls at what time. SwiftMed specifically displays which
hospitalist is on call, and we get responses immediately. Sometimes the
hospitalist enters orders in within 10 seconds of our message.
LL,
RN MedSurg Unit Unit
Instead
of burdening an FTE hospitalist to triage the admits and consults, SwiftMed
customizes a triaging logic which is spot on. We can enter our admission
orders expeditiously and get the patients from the ER to the floor faster.
JB,
Hospitalist
Since
SwiftMed, some hospitalists get preliminary admit and prn orders within minutes
of us calling them!
LB,
ER MD
The
response time from message to orders from our hospitalists and hospital-based
specialties is usually minutes which improves patient safety.
SW,
Rapid Response team
Before
SwiftMed, PHI was sent between doctors and staff regularly. I m glad we are
now fully HIPAA compliant.
TJ,
RN MedSurg Unit
Our
checkout from nocturnist to daytime hospitalist used to keep the nocturnist an
extra hour after the end of their shift before they could go home. Now we
enter electronically and we can leave secure audio or pics. Nocturnists leave
the minute their shift is over and are much happier.
RK,
Hospitalist director
As an RN, clear and timely communication with doctors is
essential for providing the best care to our patients. SwiftMed has truly
transformed the way we collaborate. This tool of communication making it easier
for us to quickly reach doctors and receive the necessary responses without
delays. This messaging features allows us to provide detailed updates and
receive orders of feedback which is crucial when managing patient care in real
time. SwiftMed has become an invaluable resource, ensuring that we can work
efficiently together, ultimately improving the overall quality of care. It's a
must have tool for any healthcare team.
RH, RN, Medical Unit
The
call schedule for the specialists is really complicated and varies amongst the
different departments. SwiftMed scheduling gets the right specialist on at any
given time so we know who to call at the touch of a button.
DH,
Hospitalist
SwiftMed
website portal was intuitive to download and use. A couple of us on the
medical surgical ward were trained, then within a couple of days 30 RNs
successfully created an account with an in-service sheet and backup help. The
process of contacting the correct physician was far superior to answering
services or the previous app we used.
WS,
Charge RN, Medical Surgical Unit
We
round at different hospitals and I m glad we could use SwiftMed seamlessly at
all of them.
CD,
Hospitalist
I
like getting all my overnight consults from SwiftMed at 7am every morning
before I have to head to clinic to see my office patients.
