Your hospital may handle thousands of calls each day. Patients need fast answers about admissions, beds, procedures, and directions while clinicians coordinate across emergency, inpatient, and specialty departments. Staff shortages create bottlenecks that turn into long hold times, callbacks, and missed care opportunities.

healow Genie fulfills AI’s potential by going beyond what traditional hospital call centers can offer. By combining an Intelligent Assistant with seamless handoffs to trained agents, Genie optimizes resources, eliminates wait times, and offers multiple contact options — voice, text, chat, and chatbot — so patients always reach the next best action.

FAQs

Is Genie available 24 hours a day?

Yes, Genie never sleeps. It is available to patients 24/7/365 to answer their questions and connect them to human agents, records, and providers as needed, including on-call medical providers when their doctor’s office is closed. 

Genie uses natural-language processing and advanced AI algorithms to interpret and respond to patients’ queries based on what information practices want it to provide. Genie examines the patient’s record for pertinent information to offer the patient and does so with 100% accuracy. For more complex questions or those that seek information beyond what Genie can access, it will escalate the patient’s inquiry to a human agent. 

Genie is providing the information to patients in a fully secure fashion. No patient data leaves the provider’s secure data cloud. which is audited against the Service Operation Controls (SOC) reporting framework by independent third-party auditors. The audit for our cloud services covers controls for data security, availability, processing integrity, and confidentiality as applicable to in-scope trust principles for each service. 

Our cloud offering uses Microsoft Azure data centers that have achieved SOC1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, and SOC 3 reports. In addition, Microsoft Azure has achieved HITRUST CSF certification, one of the most widely recognized security certifications in the healthcare industry.  

healow Genie will debut by integrating with the eClinicalWorks EHR but will soon be available for use with other leading EHRs.
