“Accurate, consistent, and real-time provider and location data forms the foundation for successful patient access and digital transformation strategies”
Research shows that healthcare consumers increasingly prefer digital channels to find and schedule care. However, a recent analysis of the top 20 US hospitals’ websites revealed that only 1/4 provide a virtual assistant, and less than half (40%) offer online scheduling for new patients within their find-a-provider experience—highlighting a significant opportunity that exists for hospitals and health systems to meet rising demand for convenient, self-service patient access.
Healthcare organizations will be able to utilize robust provider, service, and location data from KyruusOne®, Kyruus’ award-winning provider data management platform, to augment conversational experiences through Hyro’s Adaptive Communications Platform, including AI-powered chat interfaces with advanced conversational analytics. Powered by the Kyruus ProviderMatchⓇ Search API, the integration between KyruusOne and Hyro will allow joint customers to facilitate consumer self-service via website assistants—providing consumers a quick, intuitive way to search for a provider and book an appointment online. Together, the two solutions will help healthcare organizations boost online conversion rates and streamline patient access to care.
