Reaching out to patients to make sure they adhere to things like treatment plans and clinical trials is often the domain of the call center. Frequently, the outbound interaction is a heavily scripted, redundant workflow. What happens when a chunk of these outbound calls are shifted to a conversational chatbot that uses text messaging to interact, remind, and collect feedback?

In this episode of Digital Conversations, Greg Kefer and Jacob Heitler talk about a different kind of call center — one that uses chatbots to engage patients in the medium they prefer — mobile texting. The combination of high scale and content precision is a win-win, driving call center efficiency while simultaneously delivering a better patient experience.
