About Our Client

A regional healthcare provider in the U.S. offering outpatient, diagnostic, and telehealth services. With a growing patient base and increased demand for digital healthcare, they needed a secure, always-accessible platform to reduce manual appointment bookings and improve patient experience.

Challenge

The client’s existing website offered limited interaction, leading to:

  • High call volumes for appointment scheduling and follow-ups.
  • No digital access to test results, prescriptions, or communication with physicians.
  • Manual processing of medical history updates and insurance details.
  • Low patient satisfaction due to wait times and lack of self-service tools.
