The Traditional System
Ever wonder that happens when you call your doctor’s office after hours and someone picks up the phone? The office is not open at midnight if that’s what you were wondering. Most physicians / doctors / medical professionals have their phones forwarded to an answering service after hours!
What does that mean?
Well, it means that no matter what time it is you can always reach your doctor.
Check out the above infographic to learn out how the call routes from your cell phone to the service to the doctor.
Assessment
Now, with all these steps, it is no wonder modern doctors are using cell phones, iPads, direct or open access online patient scheduling systems.
