Your contact center is costing you more than you think.

Mid-market organizations in regulated industries face the same three problems. Generic contact center solutions make all of them worse.

$150B

Billions lost to no-shows

An estimated $150 billion is lost annually to no-shows across US healthcare. 60% of patients abandon calls after just one minute on hold. Every abandoned call is an appointment you never booked.

499/1,000

Utility customer trust at a record low

J.D. Power 2025: utility satisfaction at its lowest ever. Only 19% of customers completely trust their provider. Trust is won or lost in the contact center.

77%

Staffing crisis with no end in sight

Of healthcare leaders say staffing shortages are actively delaying patient care. A generic shared pool isn't the answer. A dedicated team that knows your operation is.

Built for the industries where getting it wrong isn't an option.

We don't do generic. Every seat is trained, configured and compliant for your specific operating environment.

What does a great contact center partner actually look like in practice?

Real results from operations leaders in healthcare and utilities across North America.

We were losing an estimated $400,000 a year to no-shows. Within six months of moving to a dedicated AnswerNet team, our confirmation rate went from 71% to 94%. The compliance piece was what sold us — we needed a BAA and documented agent training, and they had it ready on day one.

The ice storm last February was our first real test. Call volume hit 380% of normal in under two hours. Our old provider collapsed at around 200%. AnswerNet rerouted automatically and we never went above a four-minute hold time. Our regulator specifically mentioned our outage communication in their quarterly review.

We'd been through three generic BPO providers in four years. The shared pool model simply doesn't work for a healthcare organization — you can't audit an agent who worked on five other accounts that week. Dedicated seats changed everything. Our OCR audit last year was the first one we felt genuinely prepared for.

What you need to know before the call.

In a shared pool, agents handle calls for multiple clients — sometimes dozens — across different industries. They have no deep knowledge of your specific operation, your compliance requirements or your systems.

With dedicated seats, your agents work exclusively on your account. They know your EMR, your tariffs, your escalation paths and your brand voice. They are your team — trained, documented and measured on your outcomes. In regulated industries, this distinction is the difference between passing and failing a compliance audit.

Most clients are live within days of contract signing. Our onboarding process has been refined over 25 years — we know how to configure agent training, system integration and escalation protocols quickly without cutting corners on compliance.

The discovery call is the first step. From there we'll give you a specific timeline based on your integration complexity and seat volume.

Yes — a full BAA is provided to every healthcare client on day one. All 31 of our integrated sites are HIPAA and HITECH compliant. Every agent handling patient calls is documented, trained and signed on HIPAA requirements at the practice level — not just at the provider level.

Our 31 integrated sites have automatic call re-routing built in. If a site experiences an outage, power failure or technical issue, calls reroute instantly across the network with no interruption to your service.

This is particularly critical for utilities clients during outage surge events — when call volume spikes 300-400%, our network scales automatically rather than a single site buckling under the load.

Yes. Our healthcare agents are trained on clinical escalation protocols, on-call routing and appropriate triage — not just redirecting every caller to the ER. This is specifically what payer auditors test for in after-hours secret shopper calls.

Every after-hours call is answered by a live, trained agent — never voicemail. Joint Commission requirements for after-hours live access are met by design across all sites.

English, Spanish and French as standard across all sites. We also provide real-time interpreter access for 250+ additional languages, ASL video chat for hearing-impaired patients, and TTY/IP Relay service.

Your dedicated agents are trained on your specific tariff structures, rate schedules and billing systems before they take a single call. During an outage surge, our 31-site network automatically scales to handle the volume spike — outbound proactive updates continue in parallel with inbound call handling.

70% of utility calls are billing-related. Agents who genuinely understand your product — not shared-pool agents reading from a script — consistently deliver higher first-call resolution rates and fewer escalations.

It's a 30-minute conversation — no slides, no product pitch. We'll ask about your current contact center setup, the specific challenges you're facing and what compliance or operational requirements we need to build around.

You'll leave with a clear picture of what a dedicated seat model could look like for your organization. No obligation, no follow-up unless you want one.
