Phone Systems

Whether you own/run one or multiple sites, your practices can operate under a single telephone system that connects all locations and every single individual employee’s line.
Features include;
- Silently listening into phone calls
- Listening back on recorded phone calls
- Taking office calls from any location with the use of an app
- Creating on-hold menu options

How can the phones boost productivity in my practice?
The phones run on a system that constantly records and monitors all activity, which is then compiled into statistical and analytical reports.
Available on a monthly, weekly or daily basis – as often as you choose, these reports offer crucial insights into how your interaction with your patients is impacting on business progression. They can provide answers to questions that could help advance areas of your business you didn’t know needed improvement.
