Primary Health Solutions Deploys SoundHound鈥檚 AI Agent Platform for Enhanced Patient Experience
The new conversational AI platform, named "Denise" in honor of a beloved PHS call center employee, will initially streamline scheduling, confirmations, and cancellations for patients 鈥� but with a roadmap that includes helping callers with more complex non-clinical inquiries. Patients using the platform will interact with sophisticated Voice AI Agents capable of quickly and accurately understanding multilingual requests, all while adhering to strict HIPAA guidelines.
In deploying AI Agents, PHS looks to significantly reduce the time patients spend on hold waiting for basic changes and information. At the same time, the technology promises to free-up both call center operatives and office staff to concentrate on more involved or sensitive queries, providing more personalized support.
This push for AI-powered innovation is part of PHS's broader mission to ensure all patients have quick and easy access to information and care.
鈥淥ur partnership with SoundHound AI demonstrates a commitment by PHS to better serve our patients by being a true innovator at the cutting edge of what鈥檚 next in care,鈥� said Steven Roller, CEO of Primary Health Solutions. 鈥淲hile we鈥檙e starting with the basics, the use cases for this technology are expansive, and we see a huge opportunity to improve the overall quality of our engagement, create efficiencies, and support our call center employees. This is the future of healthcare.鈥�
鈥淒enise is more than just a platform; she鈥檚 an extension of our team,鈥� said Andrea Merick, COO of Primary Health Solutions. 鈥淏y naming the platform after a valued colleague, we're symbolizing our commitment to maintaining a personal and empathetic touch even as we embrace technology to improve efficiency and access.鈥�
Potential new use cases for Denise include having the platform鈥檚 AI Agents proactively reach out to patients with appointment and medication reminders, allowing PHS to close identified gaps in care.
鈥淧atient expectations are rising when it comes to the care they receive, and they aren鈥檛 prepared to spend long stints on hold for simple requests. Our AI Agent platform takes the friction out of the system, with a roadmap that begins with appointment management but will extend to referrals, refills, billing, and proactive outbound conversations to increase patient touchpoints and keep them healthy.鈥� said Michael Anderson, Executive Vice President of Enterprise AI at SoundHound AI. 鈥淭his is about giving patients what they need and allowing staff to focus on more complex inbound inquiries.鈥�
This partnership highlights SoundHound鈥檚 growing footprint in the healthcare sector, providing AI Agent solutions that automate key processes and enhance the patient journey.
