AI Agent for Doctors: Automate Appointments, Follow-Ups, and FAQs
Picture this: A renowned Delhi-based cardiologist is overwhelmed with endless patient queries, missed appointment reminders, and follow-up calls. Despite the doctor's expertise, their staff struggles to keep up. Sound familiar? You're not alone.
In 2021, one of our clients, a prominent clinic in South Delhi, faced this exact challenge. The clinic was losing nearly ₹3 lakh annually due to missed appointments and unaddressed patient FAQs. Patients were frustrated, and so were the doctors.
Breaking Down the Problem
- Missed Appointments: Patients often missed their scheduled times, causing revenue loss and scheduling chaos.
- Unanswered Queries: Staff were inundated with repetitive patient questions, leading to delays in responses and patient dissatisfaction.
